Cute little place. The price was right and easy access to highways. room was small but comfortable.

Cons -

The drip system for the plants in several locations was faulty and sprayed the vehicles
The parking lot was under construction and it was very noisy. It was also directly under the flight path, something we discovered at 6 a.m. If this would not be an issue for you it's an ok place to stay.
Noisy. Airplanes were very loud since it's near the airport, but they were not frequent and not late at night.
