Clean, warm, safe, basic accommodations. Located in the heart of downtown, so walking distance from everything. The staff are all friendly and helpful. The shuttle to/from the airport was great. Although breakfast was not included, the on-site restaurant "Wing Freak" was good.

This was my second stay, when I walked in the lady at reception said welcome back. It had been 5 weeks since my last stay.
I had my dog with me and we had a pet friendly room and they always treat him so kindly.
Which means the world to me.
