"This is a great value! Really nice staff, both engaging via texts and in person. Self service if you need more soap or lotion. The room is large and quiet and the location is ideal. One thing to note is that the shower and sinks are not separated from the bed area so privacy can be a challenge (the toilet is enclosed)."
