Checked in later in the evening and was told there was no room available due to it not being cleaned. Had to wait for housekeeping to clean a room to begin our stay.

Appearance
We weren’t sure we wanted to stay here from the look of the outside of the hotel. However, when we saw the room inside, we decided that it was clean and spacious. The man who checked us in was very polite and helpful.

This hotel is fine if you have are planning on being out and around town. The continental breakfast was all carbs, and limited fruit. The front desk staff could improve customer service. The room was cleaned each day: that was great. They do not have an ATM. Not convenient

Cozy and reasonably priced hotel
Me, my husband, our two kids, and dog stayed for one night. It was reasonably priced and centrally located - the places we wanted to visit were within 10 minutes of the hotel. The person checking us in was very nice. He gave me the choice of upstairs or downstairs and I asked which is the safest and he gave me a good room. Now the room itself could use some work. The fridge didn't get very cold unless cranked all the way up and even then it took awhile to get to a good temperature. The AC was difficult to program and was also very loud. It also didn't cool the room down very well. Otherwise there were several areas of usual wear and tear, but nothing bad. The beds were comfortable the water pressure was sufficient. The room was spacious and I like that there was no carpet. Because the room is on a busy street we did hear a lot of traffic. There were also several vagrants who would pass or walk by, but none of them hung around that I saw.

The hotel is run down. Grounds were unkempt. Residents in the hotel on the floor below me left garbage and cigarette butts everywhere. Felt very unsafe won't be back.

Not fancy but a decent place to stay
A good choice at a good price. Be aware there are no elevators and some rooms are on the 3rd floor. Breakfast is decent for an affordable hotel, the usual toast, cereal, yogurt, waffles, bananas, coffee. The only thing is the 8am start is a bit late, better if breakfast was available by 7am.
