Rooms seemed dingy and the soap and hair product were not very good. The “free” breakfast consisted of two choices scrambled eggs with sausage or bacon or pancakes. NOTHING RLSE. The one perk is that you didn’t have to pay for parking.

It has character, the rooms have kitchenettes and separate living room and bedroom areas, and all is clean. They could upgrade breakfast a bit. Parking is free but limited; you may not park close to your room entrance. There are other hotels nearby but not restaurants.
