The staff was fine. The breakfast was below average but acceptable. The room was dingy but not obviously unclean. The big problem is that I found a bedbug on me later the afternoon after I stayed here. Room 315. Never coming back here again.

Lucas the staff was very nice and professional! Lucas made my check in process, nice and easy. I think that the building condition was poorly structured. Outside of the rooms did not seem clean. I really wished the places was more clean and nice. I paid $70/night. Breakfast was so cheap. There was not hot food such as scrambled egg, sausage, or anything like that. I won’t book again, unfortunately.
