The room was spotless and comfortable, check in was a breeze and the front desk staff were 5 stars - so friendly and kind! Zero complaints. The area is not the best and parking is very difficult due to the spaces not being designed for full size vehicles. We managed though and everything you need is close by with easy access to the rest of the city.

This place was exceptionally clean. Also we arrived 30 mins prior to check in time & had no hassle checking in early. Parking was a little restricted due maintenance work but was completed & looking great when we left. Looking for reasonably priced & cleanliness in a big city, go here!

Great location as its near the highway. 15 min out from major SD areas and has included parking w a decent sized lot. Did not have any trouble finding parking late each night. The rooms itself were really clean and stocked. Only complaint is the bed was a little too soft to where it sinks in. The front desk and housekeeping were polite and accommodating. Would def come back

The bar soap and body soap didn’t even lather up. The shampoo did not seem to clean the hair. It did not lather up. The sheets appeared to be washed, but they were gray in color, even though they were supposed to be white There was a limited amount of Outlets to plug in chargers. There was a lamp with two USB chargers, but only one worked the room was quiet and the people at the desk courteous.
