This place is outstanding if you're on a budget -- I've stayed here twice now. It's close to Old Town. The bed is comfy. And the breakfast is also very good. Staff is nice. There aren't a lot of frills, but it ticks all the boxes.

Staff very nice and helpful. Room was very poor. The floor had obviously not been cleaned in a very long time. Turned our feet and socks black!! Water from tap stank and caused both of us upset stomachs! It was located very close to Old Town which was a bonus. Get it clean and it would be a good place to stay.

The bed was comfortable. The staff were kind. The temperature gauge was hard to adjust and tended to blow air continuously directly at the bed. The sink drain smelled really horrible even after I dumped shampoo down the drain. The frig had to be turned on which we did not read about until our sodas did not get cold overnight.

We only spent one night and left early, but we did walk 5 or 6 blocks to Old Town for dinner when we got there. There were a few restaurants to choose from as well as shops to look in. The property was fine for our needs we flew in and it was jumping off point for our trip. I had no issues and was pleased to see some of the water conservation choices being made on the property. It was a little noisy, but it was on a very busy street so that's to be expected. We grabbed a muffin to eat on our way out too and that was nice, it got us down the road a ways before we stopped for lunch. I had no contact with staff after checking in.
