No laundry room on site. They serve waffles, but their milk container had no lid.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Booked for over a week. Toilets and sink were not cleaned during entire stay. Bed sheets were not changed until it was brought to the attention to the front desk and the room was not vacuumed. If you want the housekeeping to know what to clean, you have to leave them a note on exactly what you want, which I thought was odd because other motels they cleaned the toilet and sink area daily without being told. I never left any notes so if you want your room cleaned, write out your notes.
Room was not available at check in. Had to clean myself upon check in because grease stain was on tv console. Hair was on sink and tub. I have my own cleaning products. Other than that, room is nicely put together. Plenty of storage space and updated furniture.
Got upon the morning still had about to check out and room service rushed in and said we need to strip the room barged in there with my family in there was a bad experience never in my 51 years of staying in motels has this happened manger did say sorry and went to talk to staff bad experience
Terrible neighborhood with many homeless.
Bed sheets were not smoothed out when put on. The breakfast was a bust. Toaster not working, microwave not working, no sweetener, no jelly, just not maintained. Two pots of coffee and one was cold in spite of being on a warming plate. Room was clean and comfortable. Great outside lighting.
This is a good hotel. They've renovated it recently and it's located in a part of town with much walkability. I've ranked it a little lower than I might because 1) the mattress was too soft for me (but that's just me) and 2) for some reason, the sheets made me feel itchy. No bugs, mind you! Perhaps the detergent they used, although I'm usually not sensitive.
