Had a couple bugs in the room, but you get what you pay for. Staff were attentive and very nice. Close to 7-eleven, a gym (day passes are $20), and a couple restaurants. Walkable, and the room was decent.

I like the old hotel feel- room was clean and very comfortable- close to walking to get food or beverages- what I didn't like is the owners has puppy dogs barking and whining in the middle of the night- one night it was 4am!!!! The traffic noise during the night on the highway was ridiculous-all night long- They should put up sound proof curtains

You get what you pay for. This place is adequate and does have some downsides, like the sheets are pretty itchy and everything is a little old and rundown. However with the price it’s clean and in a good part of town. The cleaning lady (we didn’t get her name) is AMAZING and really helped us out when we were in a bind. Overall friendly and decent for the price.

Location to access highways very good with the exception always having to go south to leave and enter from the north. Room service was non-existing. Nothing but microwave, coffee maker and refrigerator; no utensils. Great water pressure and temperature. Free parking and right in front of room.

You get what you pay for

Over all it was an OKAY place…good for a single night …I wish they have more realistic photos of what to expect. People travel and might not be familiar with the areas so the more honest of expectations the better. Over all good and clean just wish the advertising was more realistic. The front desk man was very sweet and professional so was house keeping. Again over all in a crunch amd price I would stay here again.
