Difficulty accessing, as the road in front was under construction. However, a quick call and I was provided alternative directions. Room was clean, very basic. Good enough if only there to sleep. Staff very helpful with carrying luggage upstairs. No problem with the shared bathroom.

Staff is what staff every should be. They are there to assist you. We pay for that service. Sounds simple but that basic agreement is lost on employees too often. Location is great in a great city

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Wouldn't recommend for an enemy. Had to check out early due to excessive noise and cold. Middle of winter but the heater wasn't working. They gave me a little space heater but kept tripping breakers for the entire circuit in the room. People running around drinking and partying but management had no answers. Asked for a refund for the remaining days off my stay to no avail. Worst experience in a hotel of my life. Avoid this place at all costs. Only thing positive was the shared bathroom was kept decently clean to my surprise.

Unsafe way to the entrance, doesn't ask for ID, so must let anyone stay? Smells of cigarettes in building. Unkempt room, questioned if bedding was properly cleaned. Person up shining headlights into window till midnight. Almost got locked out of room at 6 AM cause code lock malfunctioned, no staff were there to help. Lucky it opened after the 10th or so time. No on call staff.
