Staff was great and super friendly. Bed was a little hard and old could feel the springs. Not much in way of amenities. But my trip was quick and only there to sleep and shower. I would stay there again

Very old, we expected that. Friendly front office lady. Animal friendly. Clean but was in need of many repairs. Heater worked well, but unable to open the window for fresh air. For the price, we made it work for a quick stop over and hot shower.

It was understaffed, however the staff who were there were very sweet and helpful. Because of understaffing the rooms were not super clean and we had a broken window. But I don't feel it was a reflection on the staff working at that time.

The property is in need of an update but the most important thing was that it is clean. The lady on reception was welcoming and friendly - she seemed to do pretty much everything around the property. A very good stay, thank you.
