The staff and the location were great! The hotel was just old? The smell was strange, the ac was super loud, the stairs need fixing things like that. The biggest thing was that I booked the hotel with breakfast but when I tried to eat in the morning I only had 2 breakfast vouchers ( no coffee included) for 5 people?! Needed to pay extra for 3 people. Would not recommend this at all!!

Comfy place

It was a nice stay. However, it was listed as breakfast included. They give you a voucher where one person in your party gets free breakfast. Luckily the waitress worked with us on that Loud traffic since its downtown. Very comfy bed.
