It is located right on the busy highway 152 and very noisy with traffic constantly fly by. There were homeless people staying there making noises even after midnight. There were no tables / chairs. No tissue paper. It was an empty shell with noises. Please consider these points before deciding staying there.

Parking was very limited we had to park on the street and walk back to hotel. The room was super clean, but I felt like it needed some stuff: garbage cans outside of restroom maybe by vanity and microwave. It also lacked blow dryer. The service was kinda funky you have to ring a doorbell and wait until someone comes out to help you check in and out. Aside from the wait the employees are friendly.
