Summary: The room smelled like mothballs/ bad smell when I walked in. Walls are crazy thin, you can hear everything from outside to next door and a couple doors down! The front lady staff isn’t very friendly but she gets the job done. The price for this place idk…could’ve been cheaper for what you get. It is cleaned daily, has a refrigerator and near an easily accessible shopping/restaurant area. Overall I would give this place 3/5, not bad not good just meh in the middle. If you’re looking for a cheaper place to stay, just to lay your head this place will do.

Summary: The light by the bed didn’t work. The floor heater didn’t work. The window shade wouldn’t move. And the employee was really rude when I had a very simple question about the parking. Would not stay here again.

Summary: I’m not sure how this place got so many rave reviews. The hotel is very run down. The room was very dark and stuffy. I didn’t sleep the first night because there were so many noisy air conditioners running. We didn’t use ours because when we turned it on it seemed to just start circulating allergens. The bed was quite comfortable but the shower wasn’t great. The location is good. Front desk person was very nice.

Summary: Not a well thought out shower. The shower is eight feet high! No way to reach to adjust the angle. Your hair will get wet if you don’t use a shower cap which is not provided. The water temperature is less than body temperature - tepid at best. Disappointing.
