“The standout feature is undeniably the staff's dedication; they're noted for going above and beyond, especially in challenging situations, plus recent bathroom renovations offer a touch of modern comfort. While some rooms can be noisy and warmer than ideal, the property provides solid value with free parking. A good option for budget-conscious travelers who appreciate attentive service.”
