We were pleased with the comfort and quality of the room for the price. There were a number of good restaurants within walking distance and the property was quiet . We would be comfortable staying there again should the need arise.

The room was clean and spacious. Everything was in working order. The staff was very pleasant at check in and out. No financial surprises. As with all motels it was a bit noisy (our room was closest to the street).
