I have stayed here a few times, because it is inexpensive. Very inconsistant, kind of janky, not sure it is really worth it. I think the only way I would stay there again, is if it were drastically cheaper !

Under new management and they are struggling. No breakfast, pool and elevator closed, ice machine broken, limited linens and staff didn’t seem to understand what we needed.Their debit/credit machine was not working; required cash payment! Staff very slow in registering guests into their computer system. Hallways and room had cheap laminate flooring. Noted some screens off windows. Staff was friendly and seemed to want our stay to be pleasant. There was hot water for showers, the AC worked well and the beds weren’t too bad.

No pool, no breakfast, no WiFi, the ac unit leaked all over the floor, front desk people were nice but had trouble understanding them, the beds were comfortable, pillows not so much, mini fridge was unplugged. It’s perfect for someone just needing a place to crash for the night.
