The building itself wasn't bad. But the area had motels and a lot of activity. They lock the doors at 10 because it's unsafe.

Simple and nice!

Spark by Hilton, I learned, are other brand hotels re-done by Hilton. So while you don't have some "standard" Hilton designs, it is newly done; carpet, paint, etc. Very comfy beds and rooms. Breakfast is limited but overall fine!

Clean value hotel- freshly remodeled

For value priced hotel, it was clean and comfortable. I had an upgraded room with an upgraded price, so mentally I was expecting a little more protein selection for breakfast but the bagel - yogurt bar was fresh and clean.
