The staff was very helpful and nice. The room was very clean. The only thing I would recommend is upgrading the breakfast. The food wasn't very good at all. Other than that, I had a great stay. Thank you.

They have roaches in the rooms. On the last two occasions. Giving them the benefit of the doubt this after the last time because I've stayed there without roach incident in the past.

The staff was great. The breakfast was what you expect from a $98 a night hotel. They had a workout room. The bed was not very comfortable though. All in all for the price i would stay there again.
