Awful!

First room smelled weird and the carpet and bed were damp. Toilet would flush so we were finally moved. The second room was also damp and was NASTY. The lamp was molded. Ended up checking out within an hour of checking in. Was charged for the whole night 🙄

It’s a great little property just don’t expect to find a lot of luxury. It’s cute and quaint. Offers a bed and shower that’s it. You are close to downtown and for the price it’s a great place to stay. The staff is always friendly and wonderful each time I stay here.

The property is located close to downtown. Great for walking to if you want a close place. Don’t expect amenities or a luxurious stay. But it is clean and offers you a bed and shower. The price is great. I will always recommend it.

You’re only staying here for its proximity to the strip. Everything about this place sucks. The bathtub still had hair in it, the room stank, tons of broken furniture. The only positive is that the bed was comfy.

Overall, I think this place could be an absolute gem without too much money. It's in a TERRIFIC location - close to the parkway, but far enough away to feel peaceful. It's on the end easiest to getting into the park. There is food a short walk away. It could have a cute/groovy retro vibe, but it looks like no one has cared about it in so long, but they just let it limp along. First, there was no one attending in the lobby - it was locked and empty. There was a sign with a number to call for "check in or emergencies." That said, it was very easy to check in and get a code for the door. But it's weird to know there is no one on site. I've never experienced that before, and I didn't love it (althought nothing bad happened). I think whover is managing it is doing so with multiple properties, and in this economy, I think they are making the right choice to save money. BUT-with some interior choices like paint and artwork, this place could be seen as more cool/retro and "nice" than it is. The photos in the ad are obviously of the nicest, best room, but our was much more drab. Small things: Our faucet needed a new aerator and the door of the bathroom was pretty beat up. Weed smell. Oldl wood paneling was in great shape, but could have been upgraded with a color wash or paint. Overall, it felt drab, tired, and ignored in there, which gives you a "stale" feel while you're there. Exterior maint. a must. Plus: large minifridge, microwave, TV, Internet -all good. It could be amazing.
