I’m not a finicky traveler so I don’t like giving mediocre reviews but this room was nothing more than an okay stay. It served the purpose as a place to sleep close to SFB International Airport due to a canceled flight.

Hotel is very dated - even new paint and a different color didn't help. Room 'felt' old. NO CLOCK? What kind of room has no clock. Very dim lighting in the room - even with a bright fluorescent bulb in the dressing area. I had to shine my smartphone flashlight to see how to use the coffee maker and the microwave. Formica ripped and missing from the dresser. Overall - a less than satisfactory room. even for $75 a night. Staff was nice. A+ for them.

The room had a sticky floor, so we asked if they could mop it again while we went to dinner. The friendly woman, Bebi, who checked us in, took care of it for us. She is an asset to the hotel. The room itself was average, but we figured it would be for the amount we paid.
