The room was in excellent condition. I was working in the area so I wanted something budget friendly and this place was just fine. The parking situation isn’t optimal. There’s very limited parking on the property so you can easily end up having to park across the street in the lot or on the street.

I love the fact that the place was homey and 420 friendly, I love the setting and location of the hotel however, the house was not the cleanliness as I kept finding hair everywhere, there was roaches in the place, and the bed was so uncomfortable that it felt like a motel. Overall, we would've love and appreciate the possibility of coming back if those circumstances change.
