Clean, simple, and affordable. The owner greeted me at the check-in desk, and changed the water bottle in the cooler so I can fill up my own water supply. I’m not crazy about the room up on the second level because it means I have to go up some stairs, but hey for this price, who’s complaining.

I love the old Tel Star sign. Room was clean, TV worked and there was even a toaster. The bathroom was exceptionally small and I count not figure out how to switch the bath faucet over to the shower head. The inside door latch is broken. There was no place to leave (physical) key upon early checkout. (Some people had left their keys in ashtray besides office door. yuck).
