I don’t leave poor reviews unless they are warranted. No cups nor tissues in the bedroom, bathroom was in the hallway, which was unexpected. No creamer for coffee, etc. It’s the little things that make us stay great this facility is missing all of the little things.

Great location

Room was large, beds comfortable, great a/c. This is a basic hotel (no hairdryer, no cups, no elevator, etc) but the location can’t be beat.

Wi-Fi wasn’t working, not as nice as the photos show it, no tv, no blackout curtain on street side window so when it’s dark out car headlights shine inside room. We found a hotel for $5 more that was twice as good with smart tv, balcony, mini fridge, room safe, better beds etc, etc!
