Very friendly staff. Nice selection for breakfast. Hotel was being remodeled so it was a bit noisy. Our air conditioner was old and loud, so it was tough getting to sleep.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was pleasant, but the condition of the place is not ideal. There was dried blood on the elevator buttons. My bathroom tile was completely crumbling to the point where i had to lay towels down to even walk on it without feeling like i might cut my foot. Apparently they’re renovating the 3rd floor so thats nice… until it set off the fire alarm and nearly gave me a heart attack. Paid for two nights but didnt even stay the second because of the headache. Two bad hotels in one week maybe im just unlucky.

Walls are very thin in the rooms. Could hear conversations next door. Bathroom is small. King bed & comfy pillows. Good location. Friendly staff. A little pricey overall.
