Quick overnight visit. Very helpful staff.
Stairs to room were steep but nice gentleman helped with luggage.
They have two washers and driers, which was a plus in my book.
Easy walk to stores for supplies, Four Square has great chicken and fries. Fish and chips next door and a liquor store just round the corner. Couldn’t ask for more and price was cheap.
Maybe needs some up dating but it served its purpose and I’d definitely use them again.
