At this point, it shouldn't be considered as a hotel... I stayed in 3 different rooms during my stay and it was always the same observation : dirty, noisy and smelly. Orignally planned to stay 4 nights but in the end i painfully only spent 2 nights before running out of this establishment. Honestly the worst place i have stayed at in my life Only pro : staff was comprehensive and friendly

Creep Mob Five Star!!

Staff is with the business, they were accommodating as well as lenient with us in certain situations in which I was extremely grateful for. Two more things I got a pet peeve with all bugs roaches etc...And I saw none of this there. And the immediate neighborhood is perfect, you can go one way and it's gorgeous, walk the other way and your right in the one stop shop hood!! This place is fa sholey recommended.

The neighborhood seemed quite deteriorated, with a noticeable presence of individuals engaged in drug use, which left us feeling uneasy. There was also very loud music being played from a car at the earlier hours in the morning. While the room met our expectations, it was disappointing that there were no towels, and were never delivered, even though we were told they were in the laundry and they would bring them to our room. However, aside from this issue with the towels, the staff were friendly and accommodating, allowing us to store our bags during the day.

Truth be told, although the staff was friendly, the place was loud and dirty. A fine place to stay if you are looking for a cheap place and don’t care about cleanliness or noise.
