Great place to crash cheaply overnight, with a nice dustant city view from the back balcony. Street parking was plentiful. Room was tidy though there was a lot of dust on the high bulkhead in the room. Bathrooms could use some TLC and some more regular cleaning but my expectations at this price were well met. Would recommend for short, low-cost and quiet stay in a great location, if one can deal with such things.
