This is an older property but well maintained. The TV had a pixilated appearance and it was almost unable to watch. They said they would fix it the day after check in but it was never fixed during my 3 day stay.

Hotel was dated. Room had stains on the walls by the ceiling. Carpet was stained. Beds are very firm and not comfortable. We had to pay for parking even as a guest which I am not sure I have ever had to do in my travels. I have been to many hotels and this was a first for me.overall experience, it could been worse but I satisfied by any means.

Checking in the guest service at the front desk was super rude. There was someone screaming in the parking lot (seemed to be on drugs possibly) The room was not in the best shape with paint peeling and stains on the floor of the bathroom.

Property is a bit outdated, breakfast was very minimal (continental). Location is great, close to everything. Parking fee is reasonable compared to other hotels around the area.

Seen Better Days

I needed a budget-friendly hotel near the University Hospital, and this hotel sufficed. The reception staff was friendly. My room was down a long, dark, musty corridor, but once there my room (253) seemed clean (although the age shows in the fixtures and the bathroom grout that has long since gone dark). There are signs for "restaurant," so maybe there was one once. But there is no food available at all except a cooler in reception with soft drinks for purchase, and a so-called breakfast buffet that was (at best) mediocre. This is an older property that could benefit from a serious refresh.
