Great service

I will by no means call this a five star resort, however the staffs attentiveness and personality was excellent and for the price it was above expectations. I would suggest this for a 4 member family on a budget or a couple just looking for a place to lay their heads.

Very easy to check in. The bed was comfortable. It had way more then what we needed for our stay. It had a fridge, micorwave and stove and cookware. For the price it was well worth it. We will remember this place when we want to come back again.
