"Although this is an older property the room was very comfortable and I slept well. It was quiet which is a plus for me! The hot water was better than any “newer@ place I have ever stayed! I did not check out the breakfast area as I was meeting for breakfast with family in the area. The price was awesome! My only suggestion would be they add a better door locking system."
