Place is clean and comfortable inside. The guy who checked me was not very friendly at all, I feel it was just a transaction for him. I know they do not need my business, but they make a lot of money on someone staying in the rooms for less than 20 hours.

Basic lodging. The room was clean and spacious. King bed was very comfortable, TV was large. It's right next to a busy street, so bring your earplugs! Very good value for the money.

Disappointing

Very old and outdated furniture. Air-conditioner so noisy and had a constant ringing. No closet. No tissues. Had to ring a bell at an outside window of th building. The manager( not really sure) opened the door to the office with only socks on, no shoes. Told us we had the cheapest room. Parking , first come, first serve. Never heard of such a thing. Reviews very misleading.
