Manager & housekeeping was pleasant. My only complaint is that there was no room on 1st floor available. No elevator. Bed was very comfortable but pillows were flat. Microwave and mini refrigerator worked well.

Home away from home.

My stay was satisfactory, I only needed a place to lay down and wash and for the price I couldn’t beat it, check in is always fast and convenient.

I liked the property, its different. However, the wifi needs some love. Used my hot spot because the wifi suffers from low performance.

The facility itself is dated and could use some renovation. The bed was huge and comfy, sheets/towels clean - only one bar of soap provided. TV, frig, microwave and A/C were all functional. Carpet needs to be shampooed. TP was cheap and thin. Office staff was hard to understand at check in, then we never saw any other employee. Got a smoking room which was GROSS!
