I didn’t know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. Very clean and professional. The place was marvelous and totally recommend it. I would stay there again.
Bring shoes for the shared showers and ear plugs. It kind of feels like a college dorm. Lots of young people. Good for a one night trip, but definitely not for those who want more privacy.
