Spotlessly clean. Separate bedroom and living/dining room. Two different heaters so could keep bedroom cool while living space was warmer. Comfortable bed, nice light warm comforter. Would have liked "two" comfy chairs. Small round dining table and fridge. Burnt orange feature wall with dark wood paneling on floor. Great ambiance. I'd definitely stay there next time. :)

Great spot for solo traveller passing through.
Excellent spot for a quick overnight passing through. Very clean and comfortable, could hear the folks in the next room a little bit but not enough to be disruptive. Would definitely stay again.

Very interesting shower, curved plexi. Room was very clean. Heat was forced air, as a result a little noisy. Reasonable price.
