Room was ok but now for the price , wouldn’t stay here again. Smelled a lot like cigarettes after I requested a non-smoking room , parking was horrible… owners knocked on my door constantly in the morning up until 11pm at night when already sleeping to move my car for property family convenience. Restroom carried a smell of urine, in the shelf that has a cabinet, had something in little bags. (looked like drugs) just overall a 1/10. Would not recommend!

Sands inn is always quick and quiet. Their service is always polite and they will speak with you about any concerns. The rooms are kept clean & they have many options if you have a big family.
