This was one night stay to meet with family members in the area for a birthday party. It was also my first time staying at this property. It was relatively nice and clean in the room. The bed was adequate and comfortable. The problem I have is no hotel bed is ever as comfortable as my bed at home. I never saw any bugs in the room and that is something I always look for. The towels were the very plush white towels and smelled very clean. Two negatives: the cabinets in the bathroom needed a better cleaning as there was powder on the handles of the drawers from a previous quest. The room had a strange smell ( not overwhelming) that I believe was from some cleaning agent. Would I stay at this property again? Yes, I would as it was a fair price for the accommodations.
