Two fast food restaurants right across the street as well as a gas station/convenience store. Adequate parking around the building. Had an issue with remote control for TV and a staff member came right up to look at the issue and resolved the problem within 5 minutes. All staff I encountered were very professional, friendly, and courteous.

The bathroom has an odor, like sulfur. The room is for up to 4 people and they only give you 2 large towels. There are cobwebs and debris in the cobwebs behind the bathroom door.
