Average motel. Good for a few nights
Nothing special. The room was ok a bit tired. Coffee maker. Just an average motel . Having a fridge was handy in the summer. No breakfast, or at least I couldn't find it, but a 7 11 across the road

Dodgy neighborhood, nice staff
A place that has seen better days, in an area that is less than safe. Staff was very nice and helpful, but did make a point of telling us not to leave anything in our car because robberies are common. The place is old and run down, but management seems to be working hard to spiffy it up.

Though this is an older property, the rooms have been completely redone within the last 4 years. So the rooms look nice inside. There is a cold breakfast available, which we didn’t expect. The hotel is right next to a bus stop which was convenient for us - bus 52 and some others. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
