Catch 22

Wasn’t a horrible place to stay, definitely needs a better cleaning routine. The staff weren’t very friendly, very short with any conversation. Hotel does require 100$ deposit when checking in.

Returning guest.

I’ve stayed here at this place a lot throughout the years. It has changed hands throughout the years. I have stayed there. The place is dated, but I’ve always liked it this day. The front desk lady was not helpful. The room was not cleaned properly. there was come to the desk hair in the shower, dirty sock by the air conditioner, some kind of spilt drink on the wall. The TV did not properly work. Overall, this time I stayed was not a good experience. And I’ve always like this hotel.

Would Stay Again

Hotel is older, soundproofing on rooms isn't great, can hear everything in the hallway through the door and the light on the balcony doesn't turn off so it shines in through the sides of the curtain all night. But, it was clean, staff was very friendly, breakfast/hours were good. Appreciated the 12pm checkout time, and fridge/microwave in room. Room was a decent size. We would stay here again. Maybe with eye masks to block the light next time haha
