Very comfortable!
We stayed here a couple years ago and decided to come again because of our previous experience. There are no swimming pool or a gym but thats not we were looking for our stays. We just wanted a xkean comfortable room to rest for the night before continuing our journey, and this hotel offer us exactly that at a very reasonable rate. Breakfast included was awesome too.

We booked same day and just needed a place to stay on a road trip. They were clean, renovated, convenient and cheap. The room was a decent size. The restaurant was reasonable, and on Mondays pool (billiards) was free and our 9yo could play! She was happy! The included breakfast was yummy and filling. Felt safe. Fairly quiet. For an overnight , I'd stay again.

Staff are super friendly! Comfy bed and very clean. There are still a few cosmetic renos that need to be completed, but all none that affected our stay at all. Heat pump was a bit loud, but manager was very accommodating to make sure we were happy with our room. Breakfast was fantastic!!! Would stay again!
