The community of people in the area are very friendly, it was safe and a quiet place to sleep. Local food spots were close by and areas we visited where only 30mins away. Perfect place for our small family to stay.

Mold in bathroom. Cob webs in room and all over outside of building. Yelling and fighting a few doors down. Complimentary breakfast was a joke. Was not worth $100 a nite!
