The breakfast and coffee was the best part for sure. Great selection. Fresh fruit and other healthy options beyond the standard cheap hotel processed foods. And locally roasted coffee was great for a budget hotel

Room was clean and looks to have had a fresh remodel. The king bed was soooo comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud. It was quiet- no neighbor noise, no road noise, no train noise. The staff are extremely friendly.

The breakfast was pretty good. The beds were clean and comfortable. The bathtub didn't look very clean, but the rest of the bathroom was sparkling. It was fine for a quick trip on a budget. They do charge $13 a night for parking and there is a $75 deposit for the room.

Good and bad at this hotel. The room was okay, but needed work. The carpet had stains, the TV had major problems, the sink faucet was tricky and the bed was rock hard. To the good side, I liked the pillows, extra blankets on hand, the breakfast was ordinary, but well presented and fine, lots of places to eat close by, lighting was good, felt safe. Over all, for the price, I would stay again if I needed to be in that area.

Location is good. Breakfast was not much, not sure if they reduce quantities on weekdays, perhaps. Bathtub was not fully clean. This is the second time I stay here, I would again as long as it is no longer than 2 nights and I just need a place to sleep.

The only hot option for continental breakfast is waffles. There is a parking fee. Continental breakfast should always include a hot protien and parking for paying guests at the hotel should always be included. Hotel was clean. Staff were friendly. Close to public transit.

The room was nice, but dated. The bed was super comfortable. The walls are very thin. We could hear the next room at 4am just chatting away. Breakfast was great for quick bite. The front desk staff didn’t really acknowledge the guests.
