I had a good stay there, they have done a lot to improve on the place. The bathtub had a jet spa that actually worked great. They had a good selection for breakfast. Although I'm sure there are still things that can be done to improve on it, overall I was happy with what I got especially for the price. One thing that I can say for sure is the pillows were the worst thing about the room, they were extremely uncomfortable and gave me a pounding headache when I slept on them.

Super convenient

Super convenient to all the museums and Biopark. There are great dining choices easily within walking distance if you wish. Neighborhood isn't great. Motel is showing it's age but they were still including eggs in their hot breakfast (even at the high cost at the time).

Pure filth! You won’t want touch anything. Floors are gross! Ants in bathroom. Sticky stuff all over. You’re not allowed extra towels! Bring your own towels. I asked for extra towels and the guy literally wanted me bring my dirty towels to the front desk to exchange for clean ones.
