Very pleasant considering the low cost, and great location. No elevator to the top floor which may be an issue for some. Had a private room which I liked. Needed to leave a $20 cash deposit for my key that I didn't know about at first but not a real issue (you get it back). Overall I would stay there again.

Will probably come back my only issue was parking but after asking they redirected me to parking garages around the area. It was our first time, so it was a lil confusing but after the day we definitely got the hang of things. We stayed for a concert and was a 6min walk from the Masonic Theater. Overall good experience and quick trip.
