Was decent for the price. Bed linen needs to be replaced or washed or changed more frequently if not used regularly. Took limen off of both beds in the room to complete 1 “clean” bed that I was comfortable to sleep on. Otherwise - decent and convenient for the price.

Pretty nice all around, recently painted and appears it has new flooring. Good experience, minimal noise. Only slept and showered for the 2 nights, beds are pretty average, pillows are actually pretty good! Water pressure is GREAT.

I like supporting small businesses, but not if it’s going to jeopardize my comfort. When I book a room, the first thing I want is a GOOD bed, basically that’s what I rent a room for! The bed was extremely hard and those springs! The room also did not smell or feel clean. There were stains on the sheets. There were so many flies.

Its not bad for the price but it was not the best. There was some hair in the bed when I checked in and the key card stopped working so that anyone from the outside could open the door.

The front desk staff was not very friendly, although we did arrive quite late at night. Our room was tidy, but by no means clean and smelt strongly of cigarettes. The beds were fine and check out was easy.
