Great find!
We typically stay with chain hotels as they are safe. Since this was a long trip we decided to take a bit of extra time and visit some attractions. We chose this hotel based on others’ reviews and were not disappointed. The rooms and hotel was clean, modern and very reasonably priced. We were very pleasantly surprised.

The property is infested with ants and spiders. We asked to change rooms given the parade of ants in the room and staff were more than accommodating but unfortunately the room we changed into also had ants and spiders. I can only assume that there's an infestation that needs to be taken care of. The breakfast idea of it being delivered to the room at your own convenience is a very good idea but the options available are terrible.
