For a few dollars more, I could have showered.

The shade did not fully block the window. They tried to put a fancy shade but it did not really block the window. Would prefer the dark curtain. Felt people could see in the room. The floor was like a warehouse concrete floor. Not attractive. The shower had black dirt/mold all around the seams. I could not easily reach the faucet as there was only one sliding door. I could not get hot water,even after I managed to reach the faucet. Since the shower was dirty, I decided not to shower. No towel rack for shower. No coffee maker! The bedside lamp flickered on and off. Air conditioner was noisy. The bed and linens were good.

We had roaches in our room, spiders in the shower, holes and openings in the walls where the roaches can get in and out, bed was stained and had mold and the room was soooo hot when we came in. We couldn’t even sleep until it was cooler. The staff was friendly though.

Didn’t have super high expectations based on price, but photos and reviews seemed ok. We just needed a quick spot to sleep and shower. Lobby smelled like cat pee. Room smelled like smoke, burns in the comforters, dirty, mattress was like a brick, roaches in the bathroom.

Good for the price

I read through all the reviews prior to booking. Here is my take: Pros: price is good for quality, location was great, the beds were very comfortable, the coffee on Saturday morning was good, and the staff was friendly/helpful. Cons: our bedding was damp, both rooms smelled like cigarettes and mildew, and the room felt humid/clammy. It was a good stay for a night.
