Liked: Cleanliness
It was easy to check in. I just wish the front desk associate that checked me in didn’t announce what room I was in out loud. As a solo female traveler that is bad form on the the staff end! It seemed like the linens were clean. It was a little run down and I saw a bug on the wall yet for the price it wasn’t bad! I like that they have a deadbolt lock inside your room.
