The rooms are definitely dated... Was cleanand bed was comfy enough... There is a lot of empty space, no chairs or table, not even a luggage rack....pics show that the bathroom counter should ha e space, be prepared it does NOT... shower is only 2/3 feet wide and deep, expect to hit ur elbows on every move... But hey the waters hot... Was good for a quick stay but get the suite if you stay for longer

Linen was clean. Unit was clean. But a lot of small ants appeared on bathroom sink in the middle of the night. No coffee. No shampoo. Towels were threadbare. Cheap compared to others. Would look for another place next time. Property is old and in need of renovation.
