I really like it here, this is second time my husband and I have stayed here for a extended amount of time. I'm happy to call this apartment /hotel home. Staff is very friendly and are very attentive! Only comolaint was that my rooms stove is very dirty when we moved in.. Built up grease on the range as well as overhead stove hood fan/light area.. But other than that.. I love it here.

The place is dated and could use some work. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms are priced right with cable TV. Also very quiet and on the same power grid with the VA Hospital across the street. So they didn't loose power when the ice storm hit.

The room was cozy, but the only compliant I have is the bath room is tiny as hell. But the price OK by me. Get used to the crazy, other wise it us a nice and relaxing! VA peoples who live there are nice, but they have some who drink a lot but they are no real trouble with me. God bless the vets who just use this place as home!
