The rooms are very simple but do the job if you are just there to sleep. Breakfast area was clean and had a typical free breakfast. The lady at the front desk was not friendly at all during check in but the breakfast lady and valet parking guy were both very pleasant and hard working.

The breakfast was actually really good! Real eggs, and freshly cooked bacon. The rooms were surprisingly nice! By the look of the outside of the hotel, I wasn't expecting much. The staff was wonderful and so friendly. I probably would stay here again.

Older but inexpensive. 13 min walk to Broadway. Our sliding bathroom door took two hands to seriously yank it open and close. Breakfast was the same every day but ok. Staff was nice. Lobby games for kids

Front desk staff was super friendly and very accommodating. The room was clean, but we don’t have internet or TV for half of our stay, and the shower made a loud screeching noise while the water was running, which was less than enjoyable.
