I found this Cozy hidden hotel in Staples. Stayed 1 night. The reception was amazing and provided a lot of detail information about the area. My room was clean and equipped with towels & bodywash. The bed slept so good. If you are looking for a room in the area, I recommend EconoLux you want be disappointed. I plan to return in the fall.

The sink in the bathroom had no water whatsoever, the bathtub was full of spots where the finish had came off and the toilet seat wasn’t tight. The entire building was in rough condition definitely wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Well first the front desk lady lied to us and told us check in ended at 9 pm and we'd be charged a $25 late fee for checking in at 10 pm. The hotel itself smelled like weed, and there was almost no toilet paper in our room and also a used coffee filter in the coffee maker.
