Limited entertainment options within immediate walking distance
“The property offers larger rooms and typically attentive service, yet appears to struggle with consistent upkeep. Breakfast receives mixed feedback, but it sounds more functional than inspired. While convenient to Walmart, travelers should anticipate potential noise and dated facilities.”
