September 2019 When my AirB&B and two 2-3 star facilities had terrible bug problems, I chose this place as a last resort. I was amazingly surprised at how clean the inside was, no bugs, functional appliances, and great staff. Goes to show that you can’t judge a book by its cover!! Minor issue was the tub in the renovated bathroom drained really slow.

I've been living here for the past 2 weeks. My experience here has been great. The family that owns the place makes sure you have what you need in your room. They are very friendly and family oriented. They have a mini fridge and microwave in every room. It's perfect for an overnight...or like me..its a fine place to get your life in order... no matter how long that may take.
