Liked: Amenities
This property was excellent. Very clean, beds comfortable (loved the blanket) and updated. My only less positive experience was that no one was at the front desk to check us in and we were out by the front door waiting for around 10 minutes. We were tired, hot, hungry and needed showers. Also we could not adjust the temperature on the ac so it was pretty cold. But since we had adequate covers we slept well.

The price was very reasonable. The room served its purpose. Staff was friendly and attentive. Parking can be a little tricky at night especially. But nothing for me not to recommend this place to any looking for a great deal.

This place was better than expected. For a one night stay it was nice. It was very nice, clean and quiet. Loved the decoration of the front door. Beds were clean and comfy. Only thing I would say the ice machine wasn’t available and I kept hitting my foot on the bottom of the bed that was blocked off. But overall good :)

In it for just MONEY. Owner does not ensure you are in a clean and comfy bed. Take the sheets and mattress pad up, pull them back and see what kind of surprises you find. The air conditioner vents need to be pulled and cleaned. Disgusting place fronting as hotel for quick cash.
