I had to book a last minute hotel and found this property was open for a reasonable price. I booked and went to the hotel within 15 minutes (around 10:30pm). The lady at the counter was very helpful and quick. I got to my room and it was clean and ready for a good night's sleep. It's a basic place for a basic night's sleep but it was clean, affordable, and the staff was friendly. I highly recommend.

Overall, the room was OK for the money. Some caulking around the windows seems needed, because ants came in and attacked our caramel popcorn that was left out. The air conditioning worked well, and cooled the room nicely, but it let out a musty smell at times. The breakfast was fine.
