Filthy everywhere and smelled like cat spray. Had to wear shoes in our room because the floor was so dirty and it turned the bottom of my white dress black

Good but they can do better.
Overall my stay was good however, the hotel can do better in regards to cleaning, particularly, the furniture. The chairs and sofa in my room were visibly dirty and stained. Also the carpet by the elevator on the first floor had a strong smell of urine. However, the staff was friendly and the hotel felt safe and quiet overall.

Bathroom was disgusting, it wasn’t clean; maybe wiped down but not sanitized. The kitchen area was dirty. The room was brushed over but not a deep clean. The staff was friendly. The overall experience wasn’t the greatest. I was only there for one night

Great for a short trip
The hotel is a bit worn down. The people are friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable. I like the full kitchen and coffee pot in the room. Good water pressure. Small TV , no HBO A/C was load but worked well. It’s close to restaurants, grocery store and Starbucks. I would stay there again.
