Room was clean, bed was very comfortable. The room I selected was supposed to have a couch but did not. Only place to sit was a desk chair that would lean back too far unless you pushed it up against the wall. Otherwise, comfortable, clean room for the night.

I was quite pleased with my one night stay. Check in was easy; front desk person was helpful and friendly. Our room was great with a huge, comfortable bed. I recommend this place at the reasonable price I paid. I'll be staying again.
