The staff was very nice and sweet, gave recommendations for places to eat and drink in the area too. Giant fridge for a hotel room which was handy. There is ample on site parking. The coffee shop and ramen across the street are tasty too!

My daughter and I only stayed one night, but the owner is super kind, the room was clean and inviting, water was hot, it’s in a very convenient location, and we got to park right in front of our room. Definitely recommend staying here and will stay here when I’m ever in the area.
