I really, really needed sleep but the room was so loud (I was put on the side facing the street after requesting a quiet room) that I couldn't catch any zs. Pretty disappointing. Otherwise it's a low end hotel. Ok but not the sort of place that you'd want to hang out in.

The property is what it is and ideal for business travelers. I found it to be clean, everything functioned well, I had no issues at all with internet or noise. It’s a 2 star property with 5 star management. Everyone is so nice and accommodating, from management to the domestics. I had to extend my stay a few times and I was accommodated with no issues. The staff is present and that adds security to the location. It was by mistake I booked here, as I tend to stay in more upscale properties, but I truly appreciated the personal consideration that the entire staff demonstrated consistently which made extending an easy decision.

Well, since you asked; - Limited front parking. - Got sized up by thuggish guy in back, where I was forced to park my truck. He was walking down the back alley and threatening me as soon as I parked and got out of my truck. Had to wait for someone in front to leave so I could park there instead, and secure my tools. - Street and commuter train noise was atrocious. Two trains every 20min? They crossed within 10 seconds of each other, right in front of this hotel. - Luke warm water for shower in a.m. - Ironing board didn't have a decent cover. (I mean, Come On!!) - TV volume was either too quiet or too loud, depending on the action. - Remote's Volume UP button wasn't working. I had to shut the TV off and on again just to get it where I wanted at that moment. - Door appears to have been kicked in as striker plate was loose, and door moulding was cracked. - Neighbors, as well as own room doors, had to be slammed to close. - Scarred my shins on the fricken corner of the bed frame, which is oddly low and wide. This hotel is permanently off my list!

The room I was given did not have a inside bar lock (illegal), there were holes all over the walls with screws poking through, the old floresent tube lighting in the bathroom was flickering non stop, there was only one set of towels for 2 people, the AC unit did not work well, the place was dirty, and smelled musty. I had booked the room for 3 nights because family was in the hospital and I only stayed one night because it was so gross. I was denied a refund for the remaining 2 nights (I even purchased the insurance). This place should not be on Expedia.
