8/10 Very Good! (585 reviews)

The location was great and we were able to get to all the sites easily. Also, liked having two beds and two bathrooms for the price. However, everything was very cheap in there. The sheets were nubbie because they were cheap and worn. The toliet paper was so awful we had to buy our own. The beds had little support. The place was clean though. So if you don't care much about the bed, sheets, and toliet paper it is a good pick. If you do maybe pick somewhere else.
