The staff was super friendly and helpful with information and the main part of the room was very nice with comfortable beds and pillows! However, the bathroom / toilet area needs some updating and repairs. Very clean but the door frame was rusting and there were several broken tiles. Just a little updating and this place could get 5 stars from me.

This property had a friendly counter person. We ordered a non smoking room. The smelled like smoke and we were informed that our card would be charged a 100 fine if it was smoked in or if we damaged anything. So imagine our concern when there wasn’t a piece of furniture in the room that wasn’t damaged. The floor made my daughter feet black right after her shower walking around. This was just a poorly maintained establishment. I guess you get what you pay for.

Not recommended
It was ok for the money. Not really clean or updated and the complimentary breakfast was the worst I've ever seen. Only cereal that was mostly empty and stale. White bread only for toast. 1 choice of danish. Only apples for fruit and that was it. The ceiling in the breakfast area was leaking and the tub walls n drain were mildew and rusty. Probably would not stay here again n pay a little more to get a better hotel

The location of the property is great. Property is close to dining, shopping, sightseeing areas. The property is a bit run down and could use major renovation. It felt unsafe, though I have no facts to show that it is unsafe. The price is good. If one is not fussy and just looking for modest accommodations for a few days, then this property is Ok.

Not a bad hotel pretty good cheap if you're going on a cruise which we were just to stay a night or two close to the cruise terminal upkeep could have been a little better but it's a budget hotel so you can't complain overall the staff was pretty cool laid back and very nice we would stay again

Nice and clean hotel for good price
The hotel is clean and rooms are very clean. The breakfast is very poor and all the food was running out at 7:00 with no refills. There is a small refrigerator in the room making noise and I needed to disconnect it over the night to get some sleep. The walls are thin and you can hear the person the other room easily. In the overall and for the price it is a good for one or two nights stay.
