This is my new favorite place to stay when I go to the casinos. Price was more than fair for what you get. Area felt very safe and more importantly it was nice and quiet so I was able to sleep. Beds were comfortable, plenty of towels and room was very big. The only downsides are no shampoo (have soap) in the bathroom and they don't have coffee but a few places to choose from to go get some. I wen to Dunkin 5 minute drive. Gas station conveniently across the street. Overall A+

Decent place with plenty of space, but no coffee available, workers weren't very friendly, and the place needs a good deal of work. It's worth the money and clean enough, but needs a paint job and some renewal. Definitely could offer up some coffee, too.
