Good for short term stay
Pros:

Interesting experience, not typical for us. Once a Days Inn, I believe, it's being renovated and we got one of the newest rooms, per the manager (Suzanne, if I remember correctly, who was helpful and welcoming). That said, very minor noise issues could be off-putting for fussier folks. The lobby is also "Closed" overnight, no access or desk staff. Not an issue for us, either. Room entry is with a coded keypad, available when you check in on line. Our room was very clean, linens and bath towels very good quality. Coffee/tea in room and a Keurig in the lobby. We slept well. Price was right, no frills, and we had a pleasant two-night stay.
