Room was very clean and comfortable. No frills, but wasn’t expecting much. All vending machines out of order. Pretty pathetic coffee station - didn’t use. Otherwise no complaints.

Cute place in a cute town

The front desk staff is nice and provided a map for dinner options. The place is quiet and clean. The only thing not perfect is the conditioner is loud. But it still worthy for the it’s price.
