Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We had an issue with our room and management took care of it asap, the staff was wonderful. The area doesn’t look great but I felt safe the whole time and wasn’t worried about my vehicle. Super quick walk to old town. I would definitely stay again
Room was particularly clean (could still smell the cleaners). Sleeping area was nicely updated; bathroom was on par for the brand. Comfortable bed and good pillows. Biggest issue was noise - walls are thin (heard neighbor sneeze), plumbing is loud (made me jump when neighbor turned on shower after I went to bed), and some car noise from parking just outside rooms. Check-in was bumpy, but think the man was a trainee. Felt safe enough for a one night pit stop.
Worst check in by a guy who claims two of our credit cards were declined. We called our bank and they said the reason was that the motel IP address has been flagged as suspicious address. He even refused to give our ID back on check out and had us waited for the maid to clear the room. This guy needs to be fired.
Nice comfortable stay nothing to fancy but for the price worth it.

The property was very clean. The air-conditioning did not work. It never went under 75 in the room. Called front desk. The man said it was because so many people were using it. Everything else was great just a very hot room.
Hotel is on Central a few blocks east of the Botanical Gardens, so Rapid Ride (free) is right there. Also can walk to Old Town restaurants. Lovely smelling petunias in pots outside doors, microwave, and fridge. Very comfortable beds and good shower.

The hotel was fine. It's not a 5 star property but it was just what I was looking for. For the location and price it was right. You're right in between olde town and downtown. I would choose this hotel again if I was going back for another weekend.
I've stayed here several times over the years. It still offers good value. For the price I think you're hard pressed to do better. The building is showing its age tho at this point. While surfaces are clean enough things like the floors could use a refresh. But, again, still a solid stay for those on a budget .
Found out a month after we stayed there they charged us 40.00 for 2 stained towels that we didn’t stain. We have never had anything like this happen before. I guess that’s what we get for staying at a 2 star motel.
Really great for the price! Clean and well kept even though they were doing construction at the time. Good hot breakfast.

Room was older but clean with fresh smelling sheets and towels. A number of dead or dying bugs on property in hallways, but none in room. Staff was accommodating and breakfast was decent for being included. Waffle machine workes great!
Hotel lobby was being renovated. I'll excuse some things because of that. Hot tub was same temp as the unheated indoor pool. Meaning pretty cold. "Buffet" breakfast consisted of waffles, toast, or bagels. No meat or protein of any kind.
Walked around a woman laying on the sidewalk in front of our room. Not sure if she was staying there or not. I know it is Old Town, but was a sketchier area than I anticipated.
The room was mostly fine, and would have been much better if the wood floor had been swept of the random bug wings and general grime. There were 2 bugs that had been smashed on the wall with guts on the clean white wall that housekeeping had not bothered to remove.
