Great location, very economical, but dated
Very economical, but you get what pay for. Common areas could have used a good scrubbing and carpet cleaning, but room had nice bed and was spacious. I’m not picky and would definitely go back given the cost savings compared to other hotels in the area—GREAT location for the Expo Center.

Short trip
It did the job since we were there for a weekend tournament most our time in the expo center Pros: it was convenient to our location we needed to be ,it had a refrigerator and microwave not all staff was pleasant but one tall gentleman had the best customer service . It was clean Cons: Outdated , no sheer curtain so couldn’t open drapes so a bit dark (we were on 1st floor view was adjacent hotel parking lot ) ice machine didn’t work we had 2 queen beds in room and it was small. A/c unit has black dirt flying out (not much but noticeable) luckily the time we were there didn’t need it much

Almost a good stay
It smelled like sweaty gym at first, the dials on the AC were worn away so you had no idea what your adjusting. The "breakfast" wasn't even continental, it was cereal and milk and bad coffee. The bathroom was quite acceptable, clean, stocked and supplied. I can't really be objective since my fiancee ghosted me.

Convenient and affordable
I felt safe and comfortable. The property is a bit run down, but the rooms are nice and clean. Towels are very thin. No option to reuse towels. Door to stairwell slams so hard it will cause you to jump while in your room. Within walking distance to convention center and affordable.

I liked being able to catch a shuttle to the airport at the time needed. I've used this hotel for that purpose for years when flying internationally and having to leave very early. To me they haven't maintained the property as they had years ago when I first started using their services. I tried using the clock radio in the room as an alarm and it went off at midnight, several hours before I needed to get up. Also, they need to dust the rooms more frequently.
