Terrible neighborhood with many homeless. Bed sheets were not smoothed out when put on. The breakfast was a bust. Toaster not working, microwave not working, no sweetener, no jelly, just not maintained. Two pots of coffee and one was cold in spite of being on a warming plate. Room was clean and comfortable. Great outside lighting.

This is a good hotel. They've renovated it recently and it's located in a part of town with much walkability. I've ranked it a little lower than I might because 1) the mattress was too soft for me (but that's just me) and 2) for some reason, the sheets made me feel itchy. No bugs, mind you! Perhaps the detergent they used, although I'm usually not sensitive.

The carpets we’re disgusting, the first room we was checked into was dirty with hair on the floor and trash in the cans, the place has some very shady looking people going from room to room and car to car at all hours of the night and strong odors of weed smoke
