While it’s not a 4-star hotel, the price can’t be beat, the hotel staff are great… It definitely needs more quality work done to the rooms, but the overall retro vibe was fantastic… If you’re expecting the Don Cesar you will be disappointed, but if you stay in economy hotels you will be delighted…

Room is clean, and staff did their job. They were preoccupied with their event that was going on that night… drag queen bingo and didn’t really pay attention to us, but the next day morning crew was better. We did receive 2 drinks but bar was overflowing and no seats to sit…

The room was clean and very quiet. I enjoyed my stay. Only a couple things that I wasnt happy with. The front desk wasnt helpful when we asked questions. They said they werent from around there and couldnt answer our questions. The cleaning people entered our room when we were out. We werent told about this. I dont like people in my room when I am not there.
