Single king room very small (desk almost touches bed when used), very loud all night as far as doors slamming and sounding like people above room stomping at all times. Lobby area was clean with coffee at all times, friendly staff, safe neighborhood with plenty of dining options.

Not a great area. The hotel had updates but they seemed to be cheap and already failing. Half the lightbulbs didn’t work in our room and the shower door handle was falling off. Very small rooms. Fire alarm went off 3 times in the night which was very inconvenient with a baby. I would say spend a few extra bucks and stay on the other side of the road at a nicer place.

The staff was extremely rude. They made my boyfriend sit in the lobby for almost an hour unnecessarily before they allowed him to check in. They also were extremely unprofessional chatting amongst themselves in their native language and it was obvious the discourse was about my boyfriend. He felt uncomfortable and discriminated against.
