“This property strikes me as a solid choice, prioritizing cleanliness and comfort above all. I'm particularly encouraged by reports of recent renovations - new flooring and fixtures signal a commitment to upkeep. While breakfast isn't on-site, the proximity to a Denny's is a practical advantage, and I appreciate the consistently friendly feedback regarding the staff.”
