The quality for the price was awesome! Rooms are updated and and not a lot of commotion outside
I dont recommend staying here, we didnt even stay the night a waste of money. It was dirty on the outside, staff was not friendly. Office was dirty and smelled nasty. We lost 115.00 we felt the area was not safe.
