Everything was ok, the only thing I don’t gave them a 5 star is because they serve the same stuff for breakfast every day. I love omelettes but after three days…

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Property is fairly new. Room wasn't real clean. In the evenings only one lady on duty. She was having a bad day and that was evident from her curtness. Biggest negative is the proximity to two major roads, with cars and motorcycles drag racing until after midnight.
