Property worked for a one-night stay in the area, clean enough and beds quite comfortable. Rooms showed moderate wear and tear, could benefit from a little maintenance from what I saw, but for the price it was more than a fair value in the area and I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if I need to.

Hotel is in a great location. It's very close to a metro station and there are buses that go right by it. The free parking is a real bonus for the area. The breakfast was tasty, but crowded. Go early. The room was clean but felt a little damp. It was quite hot and humid in the area when we were there, so that may have had something to do with it.
