"Staff was friendly and helpful. Room and facility was very clean. Its location is outstanding. I did have to pay $15 a day for a parking spot for my car. Weight room had good equipment, free weights, and stretching equipment. The floor in the weight room was uncomfortable and not easy to lay on or kneel while stretching. I was there for a week and there was not daily fresh sheets, towels or cleaning. The services were adequate but not 5 star."
