The outside of the hotel was very run down and in a sketchy area of the city. There was a lot of garbage piled along the fence separating the property from the pedestrian path behind the building. Once we were in the room, we were missing towels. Of the complete set we had, one was obviously used. The floor was swept in common areas, but in the corners, it was dusty. The staff at the front desk was very friendly and nice. If I could rate the staff alone, it would be an easy 10. But the hotel itself was old, run down, and dirty.

Staff was friendly and attentive. Breakfast was a bit lacking. Maybe a waffle maker? Or even fresh, cold water to serve would have been helpful.

The space was great. They took two rooms and made it into one. Living room on one side a powder room with a sink in one bathroom, the other bathroom was the toilet and shower. The cleanliness was what lacked the most. I don’t think the floor hadn’t been cleaned for many visits. It was covered with debris and dirt and funky stuff. I wore my flip flops even in the shower. The curtain in the bathroom didn’t reach the floor to keep the water inside the shower so everytime we showered the bathroom floor flooded as you can see the mold around the shower and the baseboard swelled up with water as well. This would be a great space if it were maintained. Seems as if the staff was lacking as I asked for an extra blanket and was told they didn’t have any. Housekeeping came around and wanted to clean but we were still there so no problem but when I asked for clean towels from using ours to keep the bathroom from flooding, we got told they only have one and no others were offered or checked into to see if we could get another one for my partner. A/C went out the first night we were there. The front office lady was apologetic when she heard said it was unacceptable. She was the one who accommodated us and made it not so bad. Plenty of free parking. Over all okay….. could have been better.
