Parking located across the street so it was very convenient for a city. Room was quite small and the walls were very thin between rooms. I heard the guy next door get up around 3am to pee. Gym was nice but no bathroom access had to run to restaurant on main floor to use. Overall cleanliness was decent overall for the room. I would boom here again.

I needed a place close to the LOVE sign. The hotel was easy to find and there was a parking lot where you could park for $47 for 24 hrs. The hotel has a deal w/ this garage to allow in/out, but I didn’t need it. I will definitely stay here again if I need to be in that neighborhood. OUTSTANDING customer service, too

Great staff. Tiny unimpressive room.

The staff was great! Everyone was friendly and very helpful. The room was so small that it felt claustrophobic. No place to sit other than the bed and no lobby to relax in.
