The staff was very courteous and kind at check-in. The room seemed to be pretty clean. I didn't have any major issues while there except the toilet wanted to continue running at times. It would be a little loud sometimes in the evenings with people coming and going. I didn't necessarily feel unsafe, but I did note that it was difficult to lock the deadbolt. If I was on a budget, I would definitely come back.

Let me start by saying the staff was wonderful! They were super friendly and super helpful. The place itself is very dingy and outdated. The elevator broke down at least twice during our stay. The room was spacious, but the sheets were dirty and the bathroom was sketchy. The view was beautiful and breathtaking. The tub had weird yellow tiles here and there and the drain was gaping and gross. The area surrounding the hotel is somewhat run down. Overall, it was just ok. I wouldn’t stay there again though.
