Disliked: Amenities
The staff were very nice. The bed was comfortable enough, and the room was clean. However, there was no hot water in the shower. I know standards are lower at budget hotels, and I'm willing to overlook slightly stained sheets, etc. But a lack of hot water is unacceptable. There were a few other budget hotels in the area, so I'll definitely be staying somewhere else next time.

The front desk staff were very kind and accommodating for our late check-in. The room was spotless. You can tell the room was beautifully upgraded from floor to ceiling as well as the bathroom. The beds were comfortable and surroundings were clean & quiet. Breakfast was simple(fruit, cereal, granola bars, tea & coffee) but perfect to tie us over til we went out to brunch. We will definitely be back again.
