The staff was very friendly and helpful, but the cleaning crew is doing a very poor job. The entire room smelled of urine, and I realized the smell was coming from the bed comforter, which had several urine stains. Thankfully, the front desk person exchanged it for me, or I couldn't have slept there. Also, the floors, toilet, and bathtub were not cleaned at all.

We wanted cheap and you get what you pay for. The help was very nice and helpful. The room was bare and dated, but it worked. The thin walls were noisy.

It was safe and clean enough (corners/ behind the bed/ areas like that weren't). The front desk was very nice! There was no coffee maker in the room or on site. The light in the bathroom only worked sometimes. The hot water didn't work, but when I came back later it did. The was no shampoo in the bathroom only a bar of soap. If you read through the reviews these are common issues.

Great hidden gem for the money!

For the money, this is a perfect choice! Looking for no frills but safe place to stay? You're in luck. While the rooms aren't fancy, the area is perfect, quiet, and a great place to stay with your furry family members! No pet deposit, great green spaces, and again, safe. Even at night, walking pups didn't worry me at all. The staff is the best! The ladies who run the front desk really went above and beyond for us, without any problems. Those ladies definitely deserve a raise! I would stay again!
