My daughter and I are giving 5 stars, because The Royal Inn and Suites was there when we needed them last night. We really don’t have any complaints, the water in the shower did indeed not get Hot, however the coldness woke me right up. And I needed that! The owner was super nice and polite! My real only complaint was there was No Coffee.
