convenient ,walkable. The Gentlemen at desk is very friendly and informative. The room is clean and good size room. One hour request for a late check out would be costing $40 I think its a little too much, and they gave us 1/2 hour extension for free, we did appreciate that. Overall it is a good stay!

So close and convenient off the highway, with anything you could possibly need so close by. Very clean (not a hair or dust bunny to be found) and super comfy bed. Staff friendly and helpful. Don't expect the Ritz for this pricepoint and you won't be disappointed! Rooms facing the road may have a bit of traffic noise (as mine did) but this was easily blocked out with earplugs for sleeping, and I tend to be a light sleeper. Would stay again if passing through!

I gave them a lower rating on the property, even though it wasn’t their fault they got dumped done with a lot of snow and had to find places to put it. It was a great stay, friendly, nice and quiet otherwise.
