Steve

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The photos are misleading, rooms, hallways all old and tired. With a McDonald’s in the parking lot, the left over fries on the elevator made sense. The area was not super safe, homeless people about. The worst part of the process was the employee who checked us in, the BO was so bad it made us all very uncomfortable to stand through the check in. The next day, same person and another layer of BO that hit hard when entering the hotel.

If you are looking for a place for the night or two for work or a sports tournament, this will do. Certainly not a vacation destination property but if looking for a clean, safe place to sleep this will be fine.
