The staff was helpful. The location to tourist attractions were good. The property itself was acceptable. It's refurbished, clean and well equipped with convenient parking .Unfortunately we were less than pleased with the bed and the loud heater.

Very clean and comfortable. Bathroom was very cramped though, to the degree it was hard to shut the door! Could hear guests in adjoining room. They were quiet but would be a problem if loud. Great location and price.

I stayed here for almost a week while in town. It was in a good area and was safe. I didn’t have any issues while I was there. I didn’t have a car but the parking looked very tight, although it looks like that everywhere in the city. Close to a Walgreens and a little market which was nice. Room had a mini fridge, coffee maker, and microwave which made staying longer easy. The staff were very nice and housekeeping was great, even making sure to put my travel plushie in a nice spot on my bed when they cleaned. Thank you for making my first visit to the city enjoyable and comfortable :)
