Cozy & Great!
Pros:

Stayed only for 1 night but could've easily stayed for more. Location was easy, bedroom itself was big, the breakfast was great and though it was continental, I feel like it was one of the better ones out there. I also liked how you can Chromecast on the tv. Check in and check out was simple, staff was decent

Pros:

Convenient location, views of a gas station and the Golden Arches, well worn faux Tudor aesthetic, the walls adorned with caricatures of gout-riddled English aristocrats... our room smelled like granny panties and generic funk. Otherwise, clean and functional with a modest breakfast included.
Can't think of a good reason to stay here again but perhaps you can?
