The front desk person got mad that I was in a 2nd floor room with my dog, but I discolsed we had a dog when we checked in. Not our fault! They could have been nicer in their approach.

The room is very old, the stairwells that took 3 flights of stairs to get to the room smelled of urine, people were smoking weed, the receptionist told us the wrong room, and there were no towels in the room due to a shortage in staff. Trash everywhere, and ceilings had water damage.

What we love about this is the convenience of a restaurant, coffee shop and draft beers right at the vicinity. They offer all those aside from lodging plus the place is secluded in a nice area where there is quiet but close enough that you can walk to the main district.

Room smelled like feet. There were Doritos on the floor, blood stain on the bathroom door. Stairs to go up to the second floor smells like pee
