This is a hidden gem of a hotel. The location, pool and jacuzzi were fantastic. The breakfast was beyond expectations and the front office staff were super friendly and helpful

I had a good stay there, they have done a lot to improve on the place. The bathtub had a jet spa that actually worked great. They had a good selection for breakfast. Although I'm sure there are still things that can be done to improve on it, overall I was happy with what I got especially for the price. One thing that I can say for sure is the pillows were the worst thing about the room, they were extremely uncomfortable and gave me a pounding headache when I slept on them.

Super convenient

Super convenient to all the museums and Biopark. There are great dining choices easily within walking distance if you wish. Neighborhood isn't great. Motel is showing it's age but they were still including eggs in their hot breakfast (even at the high cost at the time).

Pure filth! You won’t want touch anything. Floors are gross! Ants in bathroom. Sticky stuff all over. You’re not allowed extra towels! Bring your own towels. I asked for extra towels and the guy literally wanted me bring my dirty towels to the front desk to exchange for clean ones.

Unsafe for families. Very noisy as walls are paper thin. Front desk keeps the door locked past 7pm to keep non-customers out. Pool is gross.

A nice place with a good price. The only issue we had was with the heater, which changed the desired temperature on its own and resulted in us catching a cold! Other than that everything was good. I like their efforts to be sustainable. The breakfast was good too!
