The room was VERY BASIC. Poor lighting, bathtub had rust stains that looked, let’s just say, disturbing. Very weak water pressure in the shower. However, comfortable bed, centrally located, close to many restaurants and convenience stores.

The property was well located and had what you needed. The deadbolt did not work and has one of those basic coffee machines, but there are plenty of coffee shops in the area. The room was clean and served as purpose. Definitely no frills, but would stay here again.

The rooms where clean, the staff; Jared at the counter was very welcoming and very helpful, the cleaning personnel was very nice. Each room had a small refrigerator and a microwave in it. The Inn didn't have an area for breakfast, my family and I ate out for breakfast and other meals which was ok, the Inn was very centralized to so many stores, restaurants and other amenities
