I like the fact that there was an indoor hallway with the entrance to my room I wasn't entering from the parking lot directly and they have those fabulous collection of built-in cleaning dispensers in the shower

It was a comfortable Spectrum sized room and very clean. The one thing that prevents me from giving it a higher compliment is that the Spectrum tv was in Spanish and the manager didn’t know how to change it so I could watch it in English. I finally found out by much trial and error on my own and was then a happy camper.

It was clean, beautiful, and a safe area for travel. The owner was an excellent communicator and I am looking forward to returning. The Paris room was very well decorated and had such an elegant vibe. The fireplace was so beautiful and faces the sitting room and your bedroom area. Also, the mattress was a very good quality. Breakfast brought to your room in the morning was a good touch. Along with ample parking for guests.

The room was very comfortable and clean with ample space--very good value for the money, especially when compared to some of the other places in the area. We had a separate area to relax in, with a sofa and additional TV. We very much enjoyed our stay. It was only one night but super comfortable.
