Very welcoming check in (considering I arrived after midnight). The ONLY issue I had was that there wasn't a trash can in the room.

The room was extremely noisy, and didn't even have any basic amenities (no hair dryer, no kleenex, no glasses or cups, no coffee maker, no table or chairs to sit on). It's a brand new building, but I don't think they are ready to be open!!!!

Room was just as pictured. Owner is super nice and is on the premises. Highly recommend this place I was concerned at first as there weren’t many reviews but come to find out the Owner just opened the place in September. Parking is a little tight is the only downside

It's a newly renovated property so everything was in good working order. It'll be nice when they get a table and chair in the room, and hopefully a coffee pot, too! The main negative point is parking. It's terrible if you need a handicapped spot near the front. Maneuvering in and out is almost impossible if you have limited range of motion.

The room was very spacious. Bed was decent. Pillows were small. No tissue at bathroom vanity. No Hairdryer 😒. Loved the lights at the head of the bed, had dimmer switch. I could read while my husband fell asleep.

The guy at the desk was super nice and helpful, but there was a used condom on the floor of the room i was staying in. I swear i wish i was joking. The parking lot was also super cramped, although thats just my personal opinion. The room was really nice looking the condom just really threw me off. Im not sure if ill come back just based off that.
