Shower head is awful and lack of hot water. Could get lukewarm at best. Bath towels are extremely small. Get rid of the Kcup decaf and tea pods and give 4 regular coffee pods.

Hotel Y. Why? Because they like you! Very budget-friendly, good breakfast variety including breakfast sandwiches. For that price, they also manage to make sure that you don't have shady clientele right next door to your room with yelling matches (always NOT a treat)--none of that is allowed here and so the place feels more safe. Just good prices and great service!

Great deal for the price. There was a fake eyelash stuck to our floor which wasn't ideal since it proves it wasn't cleaned very well but everything else was fine. We've stayed here before and would be willing to stay again
