I didn’t like the surprise fees in my stay. I ended up paying more than I thought. Hotel is very outdated. Elevator was out of order. Location was what made the experience better.

I was bummed they overbooked but so grateful when they made my original room booking happen anyway! I LOVED my room which was a double queen bed. I had room 411 which had a bathtub, coffee maker, large dresser and a refrigerator that they brought in upon request. I am so happy I saved money staying at this hotel as opposed to the ones with crowded pools and crowded restaurant. I felt much more comfortable at this hotel. I did not need any amenities because there is so much to do in walking distance. This is a great place to stay and afforded me to be able to enjoy my trip and do things. Thank you so much for the great price and cute/comfy/bright room. I am so thankful

The lobby and room were nice (aesthetically). Other than that, it was a very disappointing stay. Especially for the cost. The woman in the lobby during the daytime wasn't friendly at all. The 2 young men in the evening were great though. We were charged extra fees upon check-in for coffee pods and some mini bottles of water. The walls were paper thin and in addition to hearing doors slamming and the neighbor doing his business in the bathroom, we could hear sirens, alarms, traffic, and homeless people screaming outside all night long. Our TV didn't work so we couldn't even try to use that to drown out the excessive noises. Good luck sleeping. And the water pressure in the shower was ridiculously poor (on the 2nd floor), yet the water in the bathroom sink came out like a fire hose. The bed was comfortable.
