Not fancy but no complaints
Nothing fancy but a comfort stay. Seems like it was a pretty quiet night there and looking at the parking lot it seemed like the cars were kind of nicely spaced out so I think they spaced the rooms out so you didn't really have another person right on top of you thus not noisy. The heating worked & the shower was hot, those are two main things for me.

Not much to say. They allow smoking, and 99.9% of hotels don’t. There’s no other reason to stay there.
