There are better hotels nearby.
Pros:

Location to downtown is the only good thing about this hotel.

Cons:

I booked two rooms, a king room and room with two twin beds. Both room were dusty and dirty. The twin room didn’t have any body wash or shampoo in the shower and they were out of stock and couldn’t replace. The king room wash out of conditioner and body wash. The outlets in both rooms did not work. The walking path on one side of the bed in the king room was literally 6” wide. The bathroom in the king room was a closet. When sitting on the toilet, my knees would hit the sink. Speaking of sink, don’t even think about trying to use it in the king room. It’s about the size of a man’s hand. They had a single glass shelf over the sink and it was so low, you barely could wash your hands, much less try to spit your toothpaste out.

I had to leave a day early due to being called back to work, I let them know two days before I would have checked out and they wouldn’t refund my unused day. After some discussion, they were going to refund one day on the twin room, but at the end of the day, they never did.

There are no facilities in the hotel, they serve coffee and tea in the morning and that’s it. Not even an ice machine was available, oh and no mini fridge’s in the rooms either.

I WILL NOT EVER STAY HERE AGAIN NOR RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE, not even my enemy.

Convenient and cozy little place to stay
Pros:

I was delightfully surprised. After experiencing a shit show while trying to stay at the Mosser hotel, the Cartwright hotel staff seemed like angels.

Cons:

It wasn’t the most space but it also wasn’t the worst. The kind Reception from the staff honestly, just made it better.
