The neighborhood is very sketchy with strange people wandering around. Granted the hotel office staff called the police to sort out the vagrants. The rooms seemed updated and clean but the hotel exterior was very dirty and dated. The other clients were also sketchy. I would definitely not stay there again.

It is a motel, and you get what you pay for. That particular trip I arrived at 9:30 pm, and was checked into the wrong room from the key I was given and the room I was led to, so that come 11pm, two guys are trying to get into my room with the help of the front desk. Very frightening, let alone inconvenient. I had to show my ID and work it out when I should have been sleeping for a long business day.
