The water took a long time to get warm/hot. The hotel is a bit noisy, but we brought earplugs. They advertised that they served breakfast but there was no breakfast offered. Luckily there are plenty of good food options nearby. It's a decent place to stay if you're not planning on spending any time at the hotel except to sleep. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Lawrence 9 Oct 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities Nice accommodations if not a bit tight, good AC, great folks, no food, workout or any other ammenities ##### Lawrence Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Sean 3 Jan 2026 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities No premium channels as advertised.

There is free to go breakfast but I didn’t find much of items I cared for. There is also a microwave, vending machine, and coffee bar in the basement that we used quite a lot. The room itself could have used some improvements. There were several burn marks on the furniture from prior guests. The ventilation above the toilet dripped water consistently onto the toilet/sink area. Overall it was a convenient and safe place to stay. The hvac and TV worked great. The maid was friendly and changed our towels daily. I would stay here again. ##### Sara Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katherine 10 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very clean and convenient location The hotel is very clean.
