“I found the interior spaces genuinely charming, with thoughtful remodels that brought a cozy feel to the rooms. The beds were notably comfortable, and the full-size refrigerator was a practical touch, though the absence of a dinette set in the kitchen area felt like a missed opportunity for convenience. While the exterior might not immediately impress, the cleanliness and well-decorated interiors make it a place worth considering for a stopover.”
