The room was very clean. The person who checked us in was very nice and helpful. The neighborhood around the hotel looked a little sketchy with homeless ‘looking’ people walking around the hotel but not on the property. We will stay here again

Let’s get down to it. The University Inn sits across from a public park that consists of homeless folks with a wide range of issues. The hotel makes a point for this not to be an issue. The staff are helpful and friendly. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. Great Cuban restaurant across the street and plenty of coffee within walking distance. Also the cost of the room is good also
