The room was clean, but very antiquated and worn out. The hallways and elevator were dirty. The room keys are 30 year old technology and they won’t work if you put them anywhere near your phone or keys or anything electronic… and you’ll need that key to work if you want to enter after 10pm. Patio door doesn’t lock. The photos on the hotel listing are from 10+ years ago. They won’t change your reservation even with 48 hours notice. This hotel is comparable to a motel. Worth no more than $90/night. The area is safe. The front desk staff are very kind. They’re the best part about the place. Otherwise, it’s in shambles. Nothing like the listing shows.
