Good enough!
Listen, this isn't gonna be the fanciest hotel you ever stay at...but if you need a fairly cheap hotel for a quick stay, this one is just fine. Staff was friendly enough, it was clean enough, and felt safe enough. Breakfast was decent as well!

The room was very clean and we loved how big the bathroom was. It would have been nice to have a adjustable shower head but it had decent water pressure. The linen smelled clean but the bed was very hard. We would recommend this place just for the cleanliness and staff friendliness.
