Budget value
Older building is why 3 stars. Great staff and helpful. Area is secure even at night for walking and has Sportsman bar/hotel a block away. Great value for budget minded person. There is a dermatology and foot doctor clinic around the corner on backside of hotel which I used. Hotel taxi to airport about 23 dollars.

Goodluck getting a goodnight sleep here...
Overall the hotel was pretty good but then night happens. They have a steakhouse/bar inhouse which stays open late and guests are as loud as they can be and none seems to get it under control. Major part is other guests being rude, disregarding others but hotel should also step in esp after midnight when people are being rowdy.
