Might be dated looking but very clean and not foul smelling. Staff is super helpful and accommodating. One thing that could be possibly improved is the shower water pressure.

Clean room, good location with a good price. Parking was safe. Even though it’s next to a jazz club that I wish we could have enjoyed, the noise was not intrusive. Would book this again. It’s a nice place if you’re not looking for extra amenities like a pool or breakfast.
