The property was spotless, and the rooms were fantastic. However, I would advise travelers to be aware that they require a deposit upon check-in, in addition to the standard hotel fee. Despite this minor inconvenience, my stay was overall pleasant and enjoyable.

I could give a 10, but unfortunately there was no pressure and no hot water in the shower due to an issue, and this is a minimal you’d expect from any hotel. Other than that the hotel is very good for a budget concept.

Liked: Staff & service
The bed was comfortable and that is impotent. But we chose this hotel for location and the breakfast. We didn't expect anything wonderful. But they offered bagels, dry cereal, package oatmeal. We were told they were out of everything else. The juice machine had colored water and no cream cheese for the bagels. It's not polite to advertise breakfast and give you a dry bagel. We will not stay again.

Staff was great. Bed was comfortable. The facility felt "cheap". Walls way too thin. I could hear and understand my neighbors conversations from the surrounding rooms and the hallway. Also, I felt like I was walking on unstable plywood floors on the second floor hallway.
