Not great, but location was good

The room had a smell, also the hallway. Stains on carpet and furniture, kinda dirty and old looking.

Old but clean and comfortable.

The room was comfortable, clean, and within walking distance of two shopping malls. the building is somewhat old and there was an odd odor in the lobby which made me apprehensive at first.The staff were helpful and accomodating. I am pre-diabetic and the staff did their best to provide plain oatmeal and a banana for my morning breakfast needs. I would definietly stay there again.

Take comfortable shoes for a short walk to two closeby malls. When the sidewalks were icy I was able to take a taxi to the farthest of the 2 malls costing a mere $3.45.

About 2 a.m., the folks upstairs came home and stomped around for about 20 minutes. Could hear voices too.
