Stayed for one night. The staff were helpful and nice. Looks like the exterior of the building has been redone. There was an off putting odor in the hallway. The hallways and rooms were a little beat up on the floor that we stayed. 2nd floor Price for the room was high for the quality It was quiet in the hallways, which is appreciated Also close to downtown and concert venues

The hotel is in need of some major tlc! The carpet needed attention and the rooms smelled. We moved from one that had a mold smell to another that had an unidentifiable smell. The beds were clean and comfortable. We would not stay there again
