Place was not as advertised at all. The pictures look nice but when you get there the place is run down and my room had a strong musty smell. The shower head didn’t even have anywhere to hang it and just sits waste level. I spend about 5 minutes in the room before deciding I would definitely not stay here. I tried to ask for a refund at the desk and they refused and Expedia would not get me a refund either so I was charged for 3 nights and didn’t stay for any of them. Be careful booking stays through this app this place somehow had an 8/10 and it was a dump. Didn’t stay here, wouldn’t again and not sure if I’ll book stays through Expedia again either.

I had a great stay in a walk up and was able to extend my checkout. On a one way street. Lots of stores within easy walking distance. Breakfast: bagel, schmear, hb egg, coffee all nice. Couldn’t get juice machine to work. Refrigerator, microwave and coffee in room. Room and bathroom clean and a good size. Very relaxing on a budget.

There was a HUGE pike of garbage about 5 feet from my door. It smelled really gross, like mold inside. There was flies and a wasp in the room. There was a few minor holes in the walls and cracks throughout. We kept our shoes on the entire time and didn't sleep under the blankets. I'd never stay there again.
This was there, by my door when I arrived. It was 4pm, so it should have been picked up by then.

Poor show

The Pics on the site were lucrative but overall appearance is poor. though the rooms are mentioned smoke free, cigarette buds can be seen every where and filthy trash cans. Lamps had nonworking bulbs, TVs of the last century, The site mentioned that they have a pool, literary grass was growing in it and was closed. Breakfast place was very unhygenic, the attendant put a large yogurt can with a spoon, pre-opened leaking cream cheese packets....and bread seemed two days olds, no one to clean the tables...one man running the show.....overall poor show.
