"Great place to spend the night! Very cozy inside, one bathroom but it’s great in size! If your a group of girls like how we were there is enough mirrors/outlets for everyone. The door that is turned into a window didn’t bother us at all! We felt very secure and safe! They have a camera outside that points at where you park so we liked that a lot. Wish we could have stay another but will definitely book again next time we’re in the area!"
