Loved by Guests, Trusted for Excellence
Clean room and bathroom great service.Islam the dude running it is amazing.
The breakfast was plentiful and delicious! The staff are very nice and it there was someone there to check us in when we arrived around midnight. We got a private room and it was very spacious. Since it’s been chilly out at night (winter) it was a huge bonus that their was a heat unit in the room! Majority of places do not have heat.
Good location, big room. Nice breakfast and very friendly Staff.
