Great Value!!
The rooms were clean, beds were comfy, and it was quiet. Breakfast was offered and was decent. The hotel was great for its price range. It wasn't a 5 star hotel but it was nice and clean and the staff were super welcoming. Definitely worth the stay!

We started 3 days. Staff was nice but hotel was not well kept. Our room was damp so our clothes felt wet. The bathroom had mold in the shower. Room smelled a bit. Would not recommend.

I would not recommend anyone to stay here unless you don’t mind smelling funky linens and carpet mixed with smoke, not being able to shower bc tub doesn’t drain or seeing big roaches on the room wall before you fall asleep. No I am not kidding and they are charging $30 less a night compared to Hyatt. Go figure.

Staff were so friendly and it looked nice enough. The other guests were a little loud and the area around was farther from downtown than what I thought.
