"the room was clean, the smoke detector was underneath the shelf, no phone. T,V was awful was on analog and there was no way to change it so very few channels and the ones you did get were all static and unable to see the picture, parking was a little challenging because there were a lot of people staying that were working on the pipeline. so not the best place we have ever stayed at but not the absolute worst either."
