On arrival, we’re met with good customer service. The staff member was very friendly & happy to answer questions. The room was what you needed for an overnight stay. You could hear the road noise in the distance but not very loud. Nothing that ear plugs didn’t fix. Easy walk into town & Caroline Bay. Would highly recommend this hotel.
