10/10 Excellent
"The staff is what makes this property unique. Everyone was kind and respectful. The room was extremely clean. I was a housekeeper back in the day, a hotel manager, and now a hospitality consultant. So, I would know :) I did not partake in any of the amenities, but I saw other guests enjoying the cold lemon water, the complimentary coffee and cookies. Some furniture needs to be cleaned or replaced in the common areas, but nothing the naked eye would probably notice. The location is great. The area around the property doesn’t look very nice, but the hotel was very safe. You actually need to scan your card at ANY TIME to get in, even during the day. It’s safe. Stay here and enjoy!"

"The rooms are clean and quirky. The wallpaper was exotic birds, the tile floors clean, and the small fridge was stocked with beers and sodas. Simple and fun. The king bed was very comfortable and the AC kept the room cool and provided just enough white noise. Lastly, the bathroom tile is heated, and was an unexpected surprise!"
