Perfect location. Convenient to restaurants and bars. Room was a bit outdated but was affordable for the stay. Did not have heat controls in the room so was very cold in the evenings. 4/5 overall.

Mildew/mold. Tv issue

Honestly, I’m on the fence about this review. I want to like this property but we did have some issues. The biggest issue was the mold/mildew inside and on the air conditioning unit in the room. The room was very warm so we had to turn the ac on. The only other problem we had was with the television. Once we turned it on after returning back to the room fairly late to wind down and get to bed we noticed it did not work.

Clean and neat, good bargain

Very clean and neat. You get what you pay for! Cute, colonial entryway/ lobby with crackling fireplace. Very friendly front desk staff. Bedroom was much smaller than expected and furniture outdated but was clean and had all the needed amenities (shampoos, TV, blinds, closet, iron, hair dryer, mirror.) Only major complaint would be that the water pressure in the shower was terrible.

Great location close to the theater district on Broad St. Room was cozy- firm bed; bathroom could use an update, but quite functional. Friendly staff during breakfast and the evening social hour. Early morning Fire alarm, tripped by miscreants, was the only annoyance during our stay.
