Julie

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was very clean, quiet and safe with easy access to our car. We were welcomed and introduced to our room very nicely. The outdoor patio area was vety basic, and as the sun was bearing down hard on the patio and our room, we could not sit outside and enjoy the evening there (as we'd anticipated). The facilities otherwise were good, although perhaps a bit dated.
