We didn't like that the door to our room worked poorly. We had to fight to unlock it every time. There were ants in the bathroom and the fridge didn't work.

We discontinued our stay after the 1st night. It was so noisy from the room above ours we couldn't hear the TV or sleep. We reported it twice to the front desk but they just said the hotel had hardwood floors installed in all the rooms and this was the result. We also never received a refund from Expedia for the 2nd night we had originally paid for (& did not use due to the noise).

Not expensive to stay, but you get what you pay for I guess and it wasn’t that cheap either. The hotel is outdated. The room was ok but it was dirty, full of dust and smelly. The check in was ok but not inviting.
