"Affordable, Pleasant, Friendly, Clean and Satisfying."

I absolutely love this location! I live a few blocks away, stayed last year with my daughter and we had a great time! This time I requested that same room and was accommodated without any issues at all. The complimentary breakfast is outstanding, a vast variety of breakfast options to choose from, hot and cold! Definitely will return again!
