This hotel was very clean. Room was large. Door let quite a bit of light and noise from hallway in. Breakfast was good but for the price of the room, could have had a few more options. Overall our stay was pleasant.

Off main road hotel surrounded by other basic travel hotels. Little dinning options so far out of town but there are a few choices down the road. Found a great indian curry about 1 mile down road.
