The “non-smoking” room reeked like someone chain-smoked in it for a decade — the walls could probably sweat nicotine. Turning on the bathroom fan just pumped out more tar-scented air. They clearly know, since there’s a sad little Glade plug-in trying to fight for its life. The bed felt like plywood, pillows were thinner than a napkin, and staff interaction was basically nonexistent. Looked clean, smelled like regret.

Place is clean and comfortable inside. The guy who checked me was not very friendly at all, I feel it was just a transaction for him. I know they do not need my business, but they make a lot of money on someone staying in the rooms for less than 20 hours.

Basic lodging. The room was clean and spacious. King bed was very comfortable, TV was large. It's right next to a busy street, so bring your earplugs! Very good value for the money.
