This property is clean and tidy in all areas. The staff are super friendly and helpful. There is a nice sports bar/restaurant a short walk one minute walk from the hotel. They offer a complimentary breakfast that had a variety of hot and cold options. They also welcome pets at a reasonable fee of $15.00. Will definitely stay here again.
