Nice people, terribly night of rest, very loud.
Pros:

The breakfast was very good.

Cons:

We were the room right next to the ice machine, which is very loud, walls are very thin, you can hear people slamming doors loudly. Machinery utilized outside until 12am.

Would stay there again in the future at a decent rate
Pros:

Location and it was comfortable

Cons:

I had to stay there last minute as I got stuck in the area due to a storm the remnants of hurricane Rachel, and I’m sure I was charged probably three times the amount of the regular rate
