The owner/operator went above and beyond to accommodate my needs. Other hotels in area would not. Very friendly and yes it is an older hotel but the price was very reasonable and all I needed was a place to sleep.

An OK place for an overbite while travelling. Room decor was dated. Problem with electrical connections as some plug ins did not work. Host was quite pleasant and wanted to ensure we had what we needed

Nice view of the city and has a deck. King bed was nice. Clean but needed upgrading. We were concerned at first about outside appearance but it was quiet

Manager/owner was friendly and did his best to be helpful but the place is a dump. Crackheads everywhere. Do not recommend unless in a real pickle. We left early and got a different hotel.

Booked here as all decent spots were booked. Checked that they allowed dogs and they owner yelled at my wife and called her a lier and dogs weren’t allowed. He wanted 25$ extra for the dog. Generally a bad spot

View from room was nice. Too much junk around property from full time users. Couldn't pin point it but a loud noise verbrated room which woke me up during the night a couple of times. Had manager in room to listen to noise. Said was going to look into it but we left before hearing outcome. Will not be staying there again on chance the noise not located and fixed.

Very friendly owner main issue I have is stating the room includes newly when it clearly didn’t. The whole property is very dated and needs a load of attention. Cheap room so you can’t expect a 4 star experience

The staff was amazing and so kind, especially when we did a late check in. He was beyond helpful, made sure our room was all good to go when we got there and let us know what was open food wise in case we didn’t eat dinner yet.
