This is a great budget stay, but you are getting a budget experience so know what you're signing up for. Acoustics are bad. You can hear through walls. Condition of building is not great. But the rooms are clean, safe and the staff is helpful but lean, so they will do a very good job at their limited scope. I love staying here because it fits the constraints I have for short, business travel, but I wouldn't take a vacation here.

Found a bed bug in my room, which is an immediate “nope” for me. Staff was great as usual but it was frustrating overall.

Unkempt , needing extensive repairs to the interior, exposed water & sewer pipes in bedroom with gaping hole, unsanitary carpeting, very poor maintenance, poor cleaning, beds are sagging and unclean. Health department needs to take notice of this facility.
