Staff was nice, rooms were clean except for the little seat by the tv where we put our luggage it was stained. Overall, nice convenient hotel right in the mist of all businesses for a layover, bed was comfortable too, and floors were clean.

The place is clean, beds comfortable (though too soft for me.) don’t pay for a balcony, it just overlooks the parking lot. The young Indian couple running the Inn are very nice.
