Overall it's good, but there is no airport shuttle bus. It's convenient to eat and supermarket across the street, and there is a river behind. It's 4 minutes drive from the airport!

For the price per night I would expect a little nicer of a property. Its clean, but a little run down. Staff is ok- not mean- but not really professional. Food is gross.

I like that it was centrally located across from a major grocery store and gas station, it was quiet, clean, comfortable, and affordably priced!

Location was great, quick access to everything and being a tour pick-up location worked well. The breakfast was great, staff helpful, and the room was very clean. We did miss a pool and or hot tub.

Experienced an excellent stay despite a problem with one bed needing clean sheets. The staff apologized and changed both beds without hesitation. We were impressed with immediate service, thank you greatly.

The breakfast was fine. Not too many options. We were disappointed that breakfast was served very late in the morning one day due to a staff call-in. Cold breakfast items weren’t even available during this time.
