We only saved for one night. It was very enjoyable. The woman who checked us in unfortunately was still there in the morning. They seem like they’re seriously understaffed, but she couldn’t have been kinder rooms were cleaning. Shower was great. Breakfast was decent for what it was price point was right on.
