The only problem I have is that there were no towels in the room. I did not need to take a shower as I had showered before I got there, but it was unhelpful that I couldn’t use.

Great hotel near lots of food and stores close in needed. Laundry mat next door to hotel so easy washing for travelers. Staff is top notch. Rooms are clean and serviced but not the Ritz - so don’t expect that. Simple, clean and affordable.

We had a pretty decent stay, the main concerns and complaints we have was the bugs in our room, and the poor ventilation, the walls were pretty thin as well, we could hear everything outside of our room.
