I really, really needed sleep but the room was so loud (I was put on the side facing the street after requesting a quiet room) that I couldn't catch any zs. Pretty disappointing. Otherwise it's a low end hotel. Ok but not the sort of place that you'd want to hang out in.

The property is what it is and ideal for business travelers. I found it to be clean, everything functioned well, I had no issues at all with internet or noise. It’s a 2 star property with 5 star management. Everyone is so nice and accommodating, from management to the domestics. I had to extend my stay a few times and I was accommodated with no issues. The staff is present and that adds security to the location. It was by mistake I booked here, as I tend to stay in more upscale properties, but I truly appreciated the personal consideration that the entire staff demonstrated consistently which made extending an easy decision.

The room I was given did not have a inside bar lock (illegal), there were holes all over the walls with screws poking through, the old floresent tube lighting in the bathroom was flickering non stop, there was only one set of towels for 2 people, the AC unit did not work well, the place was dirty, and smelled musty. I had booked the room for 3 nights because family was in the hospital and I only stayed one night because it was so gross. I was denied a refund for the remaining 2 nights (I even purchased the insurance). This place should not be on Expedia.
