Nice room, quiet and relaxing. Shower was draining incredibly slowly, which was the only thing I could nitpick. Otherwise clean and nice value for the price, especially for a same day booking (~150$).

I booked a 2 queen room with seperate bedroom as we have a young child. Was given a two queen room with no bedroom. Was then told well there basically the same thing. Have stayed there numerous years in a row. Probably wont anymore if you dont even get the room you reserve.

The room was simple but clean. We liked the white duvet covers. The fridge, microwave and coffee pot were nice to have. A blow drier in the rooms would be nice. The pillows were a bit hard. We would stay here again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Booked a pet friendly room and the office staff seemed concerned about the size of the dogs then charged me a random rate based on the dogs’ size (they are Border Collies). I’m all for paying a pet fee, but theirs seemed extremely high given the condition of the room with unmatched and slip covered furnishings and dishware that looked like it was procured at a yard sale. The pet run out back, while nice to have access to, was muddy and when we returned back to the room, there were none, except 2 sheets of blue paper shop towel, to clean up with. The sign in the room said these were also to be used for other messy jobs, such as cleaning off your makeup!! The linen was clean as was the bathroom and the water pressure was good, but they didn’t even provide a hair dryer which should be a bare minimum for amenities.

I liked the kitchenette, convenient location and lots of parking. I did not like the overfilled pillows. Should have some that are flatter and softer.
