Nice property in good location —great value
Pros:

Good location, comfortable beds, clean, helpful staff

Cons:

My first room the AC wasn’t working so they moved me to another room where the AC was working but you couldn’t adjust the temp so it was freezing. Staff were very nice and I didn’t want to complain again so I just dealt with it but HVAC may need an overhaul.
