Rooms are very tiny and hard to even open large bags. Kitchen area was fine but there were just too many people using it at the same time. Pricing is higher compared to what they provide.

Pleasant stay.
Check in was smooth and the room and bed were comfortable. Cost to rent linens is much higher than listed on Hotels.com. It was approximately $18 for the linens.

This was a great location for where I was, but keep in mind that there isn't much around. My room was quiet, but the building was loud. The common areas were relatively clean. The staff friendly.
