Staff was nice at check in, upgraded room from queen size to king size with no extra charge. The room was tidy, looked appealing, and smelled fresh, had adjustable heating in both room and bathroom. Just wish there was a bit more closet space to hang clothes other than hanger on front door. Overall great experience

I enjoyed my stay here and would definitely come back again. It is close to a nice neighborhood with restaurants and bars and even a park with waterfalls for hiking. It was affordable but it was not exactly quality room. My room could use some upkeep with some of the trim that was taken off where there was a water leak in the bathroom and the bathroom in general could use a makeover. But still the bed was comfortable and the blankets were clean and I did not feel like this was a divey place. I didn't spend much so I didn't expect much but I will say that the people who check me in were very nice and I felt comfortable and at ease right away. For the money as long as you have realistic expectations this is good bang for your buck.

Although the staff seemed to try their best to keep things clean, the room still felt quite dirty and unpleasant to look at. There were hairs in the bed, the furniture was mismatched and very outdated, and the overall condition felt run-down. The lock on the door did not seem very secure, and the limited renos appeared cheap. The security deposit was higher than the actual room cost, which was surprising. The pillow had a very strong perfume smell, and the lady at the front desk wasn’t particularly friendly or welcoming. Unfortunately, I would not recommend staying here. We paid $80. So you get what you pay for.
