The staff goes way out of their way to accomodate you and make sure you have a great stay. We were pretty needy at one point and they were amazing with helping us. There is a gentleman working the desk who was the absolute best and I wish I had his name, but he is from California and was better to us then most places have ever been. If you get a chance to stay here, it's cute and has amazing staff!

Staff are friendly and helpful. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I did not need a car as the hotel was located on a rapid bus service line. An East-West bus is also available. The noise from the hyway did not bother me. Food available several blocks away. Some bathroom fixtures need attention but overall this hotel is good value. I would stay again.

I loved this place. Location to downtown was great. Free parking ($50 and up elsewhere) this hotel is old and quirky and I like that. The staff were nice and very personable. But the cleanliness was poor. Would be cool place if it were crisp and clean. Would not stay here again.

The place itself was nice, however the median on Aurora made travelling to the motel a bit of a hassle when coming from anywhere north of it. The room was spacious, and a good place to rest at the end of the day.
