The staff was great, the room was clean, the door to the bathroom would not stay shut.. The real thought is the outside of the building looked dirty.. It could use a pressure wash and some sweeping

We had a great stay. Shout out to Shekira (sp?) at the front desk who gave us a very nice room and was very professional and polite during the check in and check out process. The included hot breakfast and free parking was helpful as here weren't many other options in town.

The location was awesome, free parking for hotel guests and walking distance to the old town and Castillo. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was very clean and I could see that the staff took time on it. The not so good: breakfast was not very good, several items in my room didn’t work: phone did not work at all, shower was lukewarm for the first couple nights, some of the channels on the tv just didn’t come in, mini fridge did not keep things cold even on the coldest setting. The ac in the room was cooler. Seems like a lot of things in the room were run-down and old.

My husband and I just needed a room to sleep for a night while we were in town to get tattoos. The front office was informative however the room was pretty bad. Run down, small. No ceiling fan and the worst part was the neighbors next to us started arguing around 1am.It lasted into the morning, getting up around 8am I was going to call non emergency but i was able to finally fall asleep. Would not stay again.

Rooms and facilities are definitely not pristine. Depending on the week you’re staying, I would say this hotel is overpriced. It did suit our needs however and were accommodating with an early check in.

Property pictures very misleading the door to my room wouldn’t close or lock. The lock was barely hanging on. Looked like someone had kicked the door in to have the lock all messed up like that. There were dead bugs (roaches) and hair all over the room. I did not feel safe whatsoever staying there. So I left wasn’t even interested in trying another room. At that point my safety felt compromised and they refused to give me my money back.

Good economy option close to the historic district! Roughly 15 minute walk into town, and the rooms themselves are very clean and presentable! The front of the property is beginning to look run down with overgrowth and debris. Great place to stay if you're looking to explore the area on a budget!

The location is great and has a trolly stop at the hotel. We had a remodel room that was nice. The rooms are older and don’t have very good insulation so the rooms felt damn since it was raining the whole weekend we were there. The free breakfast was plus.
