Absolutely the “budget option” every time I’ve stayed here my room has been clean but the property is not well maintained outside and is very outdated so oddly doesn’t always feel that way if it makes sense. The staff have always been helpful! I HATE the pothole at the entrance to the parking lot. That needs to be fixed asap genuinely such a hazard.
