Overall Not bad.
Overall, not bad. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. Only issue was the AC unit in the room (107) was clicking constantly. I assume it was every time the compressor kicked on or off. Irritating. Breakfast was OK. If the bacon was any thinner it would have been paper.

Our stay in Sterling was comfy and cozy with a great breakfast in the morning. We also found a walking path just a short distance away for stretching our legs before turning in for the night.
