Strait up theft
Pros:

Location

Cons:

They woke me up the day after check-in of a 4 night stay. Told me they were shutting down. I could stay that night, but everyone had to be out the next day. I was told my money would be refunded. It has not been. Rooms were sub-par. We were alotted 2 towels AND my sheets had cigarette holes in them.

Price was affordable, but definitely not worth the stay.
Pros:

Location was near local restaurants. Quiet area.

Cons:

Hotel seems to offer bare minimum cleaning for guests. The sheets were not changed for the remainder of our stay. The bathroom floors and toilet were not cleaned properly if at all. The tile in the shower was coming apart. The floor boards in the living area were coming up from the floor. The door latch to our room never locked in place properly.

Ne recommande pas cette hôtel.
Cons:

Pas de câble tv. Pas de déjeuner. Salle de bain laisser a l'abandon. Deux très petite oreiller. Tres bruyant autant sur la rue que les voisins.
