In order to check-in 55 minutes early they wanted to charge us an additional $50. I have never heard of this practice. The pillows were hard as a rock and the mattress was extremely uncomfortable. In addition, the place has a great deal of traffic noise throughout the night. We were very disappointed, especially considering some of the reviews we read. They must have been posted by the owners and their relatives.

This was such a spacious room. The staff was helpful with our very late check in. I loved the live edge wooden vanity top. Such a cute, clean and comfortable room on a budget.

Dumpy place. Don’t trust the rating on this place. It’s a 5 out of 10 at best. Cheap but not worth it.
