A complete change from the last time I was staying. The staff was professional and the rooms have been completely redone. They are clean and set up very nice. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay there now that they have cleaned up the place and have different staff.
It was a good experience, there TV's and rooms are great, I felt as if I was home for they treated me like family, overall it was a great experience and well priced place.
A cute little room no smoking rooms very nice very inexpensive staff was great
Very friendly owner. Parul and her housekeeping staff go out of there way to make sure your stay is a great one. Daily room service is so nice. Nothing like everything clean and restocked and freshly made bed everyday to come back to.
