Spacious Room with Comfy Bed Near Downtown
Pros:

Great location, huge & comfy bed, mini fridge, microwave, huge tv, and free parking. The room was very spacious and there was a small table with chairs as well. Five minute drive to downtown. I would definitely stay here again.

Okay
Pros:

Location was okay, hot shower, free parking.

Cons:

It wasn't very clean - hair in the sink and also in the shower. The king bed was not comfortable at all and at night we heard voices, as if someone was walking around and knocking on the windows - It was so weird and a bit scary.

Bed was comfortable and room was big enough for both people. Updated room overall.

Cons:
