proximity to the downtown is great. we were able to walk to everything. parking was very limited on site unless you paid next door. beds were very comfy. we really only needed a place to sleep after about 6 hours since we out all day and night at events. Served great for that purpose

The room was very clean. Staff was helpful. We moved rooms 3 times due to some internet issues but the staff was very attentive and accommodated all requests promptly. Parking is limited. There is a self pay lot next door but luckily we were able to find something on-site. Decided to stay here last minute, clean, quiet and fairly inexpensive and relatively close to downtown nightlife. Have stayed here before and would stay here again.

This hotel misses the basic hygiene standards, they told me they are remodeling and I hope that they improve in the future because the location is great but the furniture is very old and wasted and unfortunately we saw several cockroaches and bugs. The beds are very soft and uncomfortable. I hate to do bad reviews but I feel a duty to be honest and avoid the nightmare we had in our stay

Hotel was a bit more run down than I expected but the room was clean, bed was comfy and service was nice. As mentioned in other reviews there are homeless people in the area, however I found that consistent around all of downtown, not just this hotel.
