Be prepared.
Pros:

Staff was pleasant enough and the price is decent.

Cons:

The amount of criminal activity and the noise level all night long was terrible. You need to be street smart to stay here.

Never again
Pros:

Bad location. Shady people were all around the hotel and parking lot most of the night. Lots of homeless wandering around that area too. Didn’t feel safe.

Cons:

The shower hadvery little pressure and the temperature of the water changed drastically from time to time.

We didn’t stay it was too dangerous.
Pros:

Nothing. It was dreadful.

Cons:

The entire hotel was horrendous. I am in the process of trying to get a refund as myself and my family felt unsafe with the criminal activity going on and couldn’t even check in. I explained this to the receptionist and she stated she understood as we have young children and will not charge us and she stated that they are trying to improve this behaviour. We can not believe this property is on this site as we believe it could potentially be a half way house. At the point of booking it did not have such reviews and of course if it did I would never have put myself or my family in a dangerous situation like that.

Stay away
Pros:

Close to down town

Cons:

AC did not work , illegal drug use in area , raw food on walkway to room, rooms were very dark inside and had very little lighting , room had broken glass replaced with foam and no lock on sliding window so you could open from outside and access inside door lock , pretty sure property is a halfway house , checked out next morning and only was refunded 1 of 3 days but only stayed 1 night. Stay away

The price and location were great. If I were 20 and roaming across the country, I’d stay here.
Pros:

The location and price were good. The decor was nice.

Cons:

There were drain flies in the room. It sounded like they were doing construction in the room above us. The bed was extremely soft, and the pillows were flat. The bathroom tile looked like someone had done a DIY job, and this was their first time trying to work with tile.

It was HORRIBLE
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

It should be considered one star. There were people doing drugs outside, walking around with weapons, and I felt extremely uncomfortable staying. I had a friend pick me up, I did not spend the night there.

Pros:

Asukoht

Cons:

Hotelli territooriumil hulkusid pidevalt mingid kodutud, narkomaanid ja imelikult käituvad inimesed. Hotelli personal sellele ei reageerinud.
