We stayed there for four nights. The beds were decently clean, yet the room has a stale smell, the bathroom fan was giving a weed smell for the first night. The staff was friendly and helpful. My recommendation for the management to add more towel drying racks in the bathroom and by the sink; replace stained and dirty mesh office chairs with a smooth surfaced chairs that will be easily to maintain in clean condition; and run the air conditioner on "dry" setting prior the guest's arrival. That all together may help to upgrade the general experience from "Good" to "Very good" or "Excellent". Thank you!

Overall for the value and location, I would stay here again. Room cleanliness was okay except for hair on the shower wall. Also, walls between rooms are pretty thin. Breakfast was okay given the price of the room. Waffles, bagels, yogurt and some fruit.

Staff was kind and helpful. Sheets and duvet had visible stains on them. Door to outside had a very large gap under, allowing a significant amount of cold air in. Thankfully the heater worked perfectly and kept the room warm.

If you just go for a night and need a well-priced hotel to stay this is a good pick! The rooms are clean and it’s fine for a night. We stayed three nights and would not do that again. It is SO noisy, we woke up several times a night from people walking and talking past our room. The breakfast is also quite sad. No peanut butter or jam and the coffee was not good.
