I am a woman who travels alone to visit my son in the area, and I feel very safe and comfortable in this hotel. I think this was my fourth or fifth stay. It has become something of a home away from home. I love the workspace and kitchen. Very happy here.

The hotel is in need of a makeover; the carpet, furniture, etc, are highly worn out. It's a highly trafficked hotel.

Needs Cleaning

The front desk was friendly and very accommodating. The hotel is not the cleanest. I observed bags of garbage in the first floor hall. There’s an overall odor…maybe of smoke. The first floor room smelled heavily of smoke, so I requested another and was transferred to a third floor room, which was much better, but there was still a bit of that smell. I just didn’t trust that my room had actually been sterilized. Other than that, the bed was very comfortable. It was quiet. Everything worked; nothing was broken. I felt safe with the indoor halls/doors and locks. I appreciated that there was an elevator between floors. The front desk attendant was super friendly.
