Nice and comfortable room. The shower is very small. But its perfect for a place to sleep. The sign out front says continental breakfast, but there is no breakfast of any kind.

Honestly, the room was quite filthy, you can definitely tell they do not have an actual housekeeper, and they probably go in the rooms themselves to clean up. Walls, doors, floors, just everything was caked in gunk and filth. Their sign claims free HBO, yet we did not have a working TV at all. We would turn it on, and it said no signal, the remote buttons were not responding at all, and when it did let us go through the inputs, none of them had a single anything. Just said no single on all of them. So no tv all night and honestly a pretty disgusting room cleanliness wise. Tons and tons of obvious drug deals going on in the rooms surrounding. Didn’t feel very safe, and just overall would never come here again.
