Great little gem.

What a great little place. Located in a quiet neighborhood but close to everything. The host was absolutely great, and extremely accommodating. The room was awesome and went beyond my expectations. The large flatscreen in my room was perfect. The pool was very welcoming. Breakfast was made to order and tasted great. When I left LuLu made sure to load me up with sites to see along the way to my next stop. I highly recommend staying here.
