I was pleasantly surprised by how nice, clean, and up to date it was, considering how much I paid for the room. The price was super affordable and low cost. Way cheaper than some of the surrounding hotels. I will definitely come back. Also, the staff was super friendly and helpful. I would recommend this amazing hotel to everyone.
