Hotel was in a really sus location, didn’t have cold water running from the sink, I was worried the whole time after reading reviews that someone would break into my room or housekeeping, would steal my stuff. Everything was fine, but it wasn’t a good vibe.

Room was adequate for an overnight crash pad but very basic, as was the meager breakfast. Tap water tastes terrible; ask for free bottled water at the desk. Plenty of safe, free parking.

Good for the price.

Great place for the money. Only complaint would be that the walls seem to be paper thin and when our neighbors got back from the bar at 1am and turned on the tv we could hear every word. They were watching big bang theory.
