The building is pretty old and I did see a tiny bug crawling on the bathroom walls but other than that it wasn’t horrible. Not bad if you just need a cheap place to sleep and shower for a night or two.

I think it was a great value and pleasantly surprised how well maintained and clean it was. It was much cleaner than other properties I have stayed at in the area, that were $20 - $30 more per night. And their pet fee was only $10. Staff was great, even finding and loaning me a wall charger for my phone, which I had forgotten to bring. Clearly, nothing fancy about this place, but I was comfortable. The bed was comfy, decent pillows. My negatives were no hangers provided in the closet area and the hot water was "really warm", but not hot enough for a steamy show. But I'd stay again.

I told the front desk people that the television had bad color settings, and they couldn't adjust it. They offered me to move into another room, and I had too much stuff to move it was end of the day, I was so exhausted. I told them, to give me a discount. They said, "Well, we will see, what they can do."
