Ok over-all
Convenient for my needs to what I was doing in the area. Not much around as far as nightlife, but 15 minutes walk will get you there. The hotel is a little worn and can use some TLC, but good value, friendly staff and it met my needs.

This place exceeded our expectations in every way. We had room 20 upstairs and it looked brand new. Everything was so clean.

2/10 Poor

Avoid this place
Cheap motel charging 3-4 star hotel prices. Very tiny room with no place to move around. It’s almost like sleeping on the street as you can hear every noise from the street and neighboring rooms. Very limited parking available. They advise you to park on the road side if needed. If you are OK with not sleeping through the night this is the place to be.

Overall experience was adequate
This model was older, probably erected in the 60’s, but maintained including updated finishes. Tiled floors throughout were nice in lieu of the dirt collecting carpets in most motels. Bathroom fixtures and room AC unit were updated. Housekeeping staff was pleasant. Still has the original jalousie windows which allow outside nose to enter and obviously what occurs inside to exit. So privacy is not present. Nice little courtyard with seating. We would return here if needed as we found the overall experience positive but would prefer a more modern facility. The largest issue was the outside noise entering through those windows. Overall, adequate for our needs, clean, maintained, and friendly staff.
