Unfortunately, we stayed at The Clipper Inn. This a motel than a hotel. There were cobwebs in the corner ceiling with a spider in it. The toilet leaked at the base and bugs in the bathroom. The floor was dirty so had to wear shoes all the time. Finally, the beds are worn out. I woke up with an aching back. They need to refresh the property immediately.

Nice clean rooms. Staff pleasant. Reserved 2 queens but when we arrived it was a queen and a single. Worked out ok. Kind of noisy. Inexpensive option for 1 night.
