Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed one night, room had a musty smell. Towels very small and thin, tub mat was a hand towel. Seems they have hard water as tub and shower curtain were brownish stained. On a brighter note bed was comfortable. Parking right at your door, which we couldn’t use as someone parked their truck and trailer giving no room to park our car. Friendly staff…
