This is a unique and interesting property. We can sit on a balcony and look out over Ashland Bay. It is a large and spacious suite, for about the same price as a cell like motel room.

I travel 100 nights a year for work. This is THE BEST gem I’ve ever found. I absolutely loved the property and my room. Extremely clean, inviting, and the best hotel bed I’ve ever slept in. I’m considering coming here for a vacation to bring my wife for a few days just because of how great this place was.
