Great location and a good rate through laterooms. Had breakfast in bed but was served cold (not even warm). Carpet and bedding had paint on them too. Not great |

be aware that if you want to pay cash, you will be expected to pay a deposit of 50.00 before you can check in and this is not made clear to you until you arrive. The receptionist are very abrupt and the customer service skills leave much to be desired. Do not expect any pillows, you get cushions on your bed. |
