It was very clean and cozy. After a long day working, I was able to get a restful sleep!
There were no roaches, everything worked just fine, and it was priced well! If possible, I'll be back for a weekly rate.

Terrible exp!
From beginning to end, the stay was disappointing. I booked 2 rooms for my family with a child, and here’s what happened:
1. One room was fine, but the second had no AC. We were moved to a smaller room, not what I paid for.
2. Two lights were broken, making the room very dark.
3. Bathroom door was nearly falling off—unsafe for kids.
4. Toilet was broken. I had to fix it temporarily myself.
5. Room key stopped working after 24 hours—had to rekey.
6. Ice machine was out of service.
7. Shampoo and shower gel came in a tiny plastic bag—very minimal.
8. Elevator broke on checkout day—only one in the hotel. We had to carry all luggage from the 3rd floor by stairs.
9. Staff response was simply: “Unfortunately.”

The desk clerk was kind to ask us to check the room out first to see if we liked it before committing to it.
It was a clean and spacious room.

Neat, nice and moderate price
it was a very neat and cool environment. Though their was a security 100bucks deposit which I didn't know about at the point of booking the room, I still strongly recommend.

pls improve the quality before you lose customer
Hotel did not provide garbage can or trash bag but remind you have to clean any garbage before you leave hotel.\
TV channel is poor with low quality and cannot work properly for 5 minutes. Almost you find nothing to watch on TV
escalate quality has issue.
