Summary: Bed and pillows were exceptionally comfortable, firm but soft. Good quality towels, shampoo, body wash. Heater heats up very quickly. Good water pressure. Good size tv. Breakfast:coffee, orange juice, milk, self cook waffles, English muffins, wheat breads, mini muffins, 2 cornflake cereals, dannon yogurt cups, microwaveable Jimmy Dean breakfast egg sausage and cheese sandwich on croissant or on English muffins. The owner couple is very nice. Building, tub, sink and furnishings are outdated which reflects in the low price. So we give it a 4 stars because everything worked well and excellent beddings and free breakfast. Thank you for a great night sleep!
