Overall, the facility was clean and well maintained. The only thing was, seemed like the tile floor in the room was not as clean as I thought it should be.

Perfect for my needs. The limited staff interactions I had were good, the hotel felt safe and comfortable. The room was clean enough, not spotless but nothing glaring and gross was missed. I'll stay here again.

Warm and cozy
The room I was given was reeked with cigarette smell. I called the office and the receptionist said that he will be right to give me the key for next door. He was fast and apologized.

Disliked: Amenities
The location and price were good. The front desk was friendly and helpful when I needed to request a new coffee maker in my room. One very noisy evening on Saturday night/early morning. Not sure I will return. You get what you pay for!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff at the front desk was very nice and got us checked in early morning. There was free parking on site which was great. The walls are extremely thin and you could hear everything outside. If you are on the ground floor, be prepared to hear everything the upstairs neighbors are doing. You could hear every footstep, creak on the floorboards, and every door opening and closing. Besides that, the property has everything you need
