Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff was excellent. The front desk got me in my room a little early. I really appreciated that since I had been waiting in the area since 10 AM. The room is clean, but they’re doing major construction on the hotel and surrounding areas. Overall a good budget out location, location, location. It’s literally a 10 minute walk to the pier if you are taking a cruise. Breakfast was above average for a free breakfast. A lot of variety! I am happy with this stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Staff was excellent, good/ fair room prices. Liked the breakfast, room was clean and spacious. Great location across from park, about a 5 minute walk to Little Italy. What you should know, $40 parking per night, no early check in, 4pm which is the latest I have seen, fridge has no temperature control knob, no microwave, my room faced a vacant lot that was not the hotel's, it was an eyesore, piles of trash, broken concrete, dead brush etc. still I would return and recommend this hotel. The pluses outweighed over anything negative.

This hotel needs to be updated. The rooms are ok and clean but the bedding comforter came apart. The refrigerator had food from the previous people. Complimentary snacks were nice. The elevator needs to be fixed. Its under construction and while the sign said they're "working on it" given the graffiti on the foam board its been like that a long time. You can hear airplanes rev their engines and trains through the windows. The staff was very friendly.
