When there’s cobwebs with bugs in them up in the corners, that pretty much says it all. Stayed my one brief night and wouldn’t go back.

Perfect stay!
The room was perfect! Clean, fresh and reasonable price! Bed was most comfortable we have slept on in a long time! Several comfortable pillows on the bed. Microwave, refrigerator and kerig coffee was all clean and appeared new. Would definately stay here again and highly recommend.

Good but slow WIFI
There for a quick overnight stay: arrived 8pm ish with a reservation and all was ready. Easy checkin, very basic room: clean, all the regular amenities. Only negative was that the wireless while they have it, it was so slow I never connected.

Things to know before you stay
I read a lot of reviews and stayed here for the location and cleanliness. Both of those things are true. It's a good location and the rooms are clean. The front staff is also very friendly. I would not stay here again though because it's very loud, lots of parties going on right outside your door, also, lots of smoking going on right outside your door. My neighbors sat on a chair in front of my door and smoked for hours, my room smelled like smoke most of my stay. There is also very poor wifi.

New management appears to still have some growing pains. Ran out of room coffee pods, internet was poor. Had to pay a premium for Friday booking? In all quite adequate for the area.
