Good overall value

It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. However, they ran out of basic breakfast items. Overall, it was a good value, and I would stay there again.

Conveniently located, overall a very fair value. Very friendly reception. Complimentary breakfast was good, but oddly there were no forks, and none on hand at all. Would stay again.

Worth the stay

I just needed to crash for a few hours while traveling. This place is right in the middle of downtown and walking distance to everything. The continental breakfast was one of the best. And for the price much worth it

The front desk was helpful, and I had no gripe with the room. My only main issue was that the showers did not have a barrier protecting the water from splashing onto the bathroom floor, making most of the floor wet afterward. I would stay here again, preferably for one night.
