This hotel was pretty run down and didn’t look like the pictures online. The white bedding had stains all over both of our beds. Bathroom fixtures were rusty, carpets and walls filthy dusty snd stained. The main road the hotel is on is extremely loud so bring ear plugs if you want to sleep. The bed was very comfortable despite it not being the cleanest. There are a lot of homeless and drug addicts all over the place when you walk around the area.

The property is somewhat "tired". Wall paper in our bathroom was peeling, an art print on the wall was warpped inside the frame and seemed to be missing it's partner print on the bathroom wall (large empty space). The bed was great. The plugs in the lamps next to the bed both didn't charge our phones. We had no housekeeping on our 2nd day. No one mentioned that they might not come. Trash, not cleaned, bed not made, towels not taken out. I mentioned it to the front desk, but there was nothing to be done. No explanation given. It costs too much per night, not to have the room turned. Won't stay again, with other choices nearby for a similar price. The garage next door was nice, and affordable.
