Liked: Amenities
It was a nice stay. The room having a living area with fridge and microwave area in addition to the bedroom was nice. The breakfast options were fantastic. Made to order eggs, pancakes, French toast, bacon, cereal, any bread for toast, baked goods. Very impressed! My only complaint was a tampered with smoke detector hanging off the wall and the bathroom was clean but the rust and dated trim made it look like they tried to cover up the old gross room with new things instead of replacing it.
