The rooms were extremely clean, LOVED the smell readiness of housekeeping! The breakfast was a GREAT hot breakfast with everything we would like to eat in the morning, well served! The staff?!? AMAZING STAFF, all of them very caring, attentive and ready to help. We’ve never stayed in a simple hotel like this and had such an amazing experience!

The room was clean, but the fixtures were outdated. There were rust spots on the closet door. The refrigerator hum was noticeable. There was also an odor, like maybe the carpeting is aged.

Did not find fresh clean sheets, having asked the front desk lady the schedule of housekeeping, left the room, came back and the room was not cleaned. Old and badly kept building. Lack of cleanliness. Not nice neighborhood. Would not recommend this htl to anyone.
