The hotel is old. Although they are trying “boutique” it, the changes are mostly cosmetic and don’t really hide the run-down aspect. Plumbing a bit backed up. It was clean, but also lacking simple amenities (shampoo and lotion in the shower, but no soap). A couple of draw backs that are NOT the fault of the hotel: The neighborhood felt very sketchy (likely due proximity to a homeless shelter) and there is a nightclub across the street that had some of the loudest music I have ever heard coming out of a club. I cannot imagine anyone in the club who would not have experienced hearing loss or damage and I’m a doctor. This went on until 2AM. Overall, clean and they clearly appear to be trying. I just wouldn’t stay there again

Unsafe, unclean, and not recommended. They put lipstick on a pig, then it smeared all over the place! Also, it is not a hotel…it is a MOTEL! Maybe they should learn the difference…u fortunately, hotels.com somehow magically has this 3.0 (m)otel listed at 8.0…dream on!

The facility is no where near an 8, this is a 3 at best. The pictures must reflect how it was the first day. The neighborhood is sketchy, loud, and unsafe at night. The room was worn, damaged, and not very clean. The sheets thankfully were clean and the beds were comfortable enough. The door would not close all the way and looked like it had been previously kicked in - it would only latch if you pushed firmly and it was so warped the deadbolt could not be locked (and this is not a good neighborhood). One towel had blood stains, the bathroom was not clean, and the shower door would not stay closed. Enough said…I do not recommend!

Check in was easy as pie, the room was clean, the staff were courteous and friendly ( Zabrina! She was so nice, easy to talk to! ). Only negative i have about the whole experience we're the vending machines, they did not work, no signage to indicate and it ate my money. It's like oooooh so many good snacks but no, you can't have them! Put a sign on it! It was pretty quiet during our stay, if i come for another event in the same area i would stay again, for sure.
