Rooms very clean. Beds very comfortable. Hallways and stairwell could use a good cleaning. Our room was facing the garbage bin and there was a flock of seagulls feasting - noisy! The lobby was very clean and attractive, the desk attendant was very pleasant and helpful.

I do not like giving bad reviews but I believe it would just be unfair to others if I didn’t leave a comment about this hotel. The mirrors in the room look like they have never seen a cleaning rag. It took everything in me to step in the tub to take a quick shower. I slept on top of the sheets on my bed. The smoke detector did not look intact. The room above us leaked into our shower the following day. I can’t believe this place is rated as high as it is. I paid about $250 for one night. Total rip off! I was so frustrated after seeing my room that I wanted to go somewhere else but was afraid I wouldn’t get my money back.

A bit gross
I will say the bed was comfortable. That’s about it. The tv was not working. It kept blinking like a loose wire but couldn’t fix it. I wasn’t there to watch tv so I didn’t care too much. What the issue was when using the bathroom the next day, I noticed what appeared to be someone wiped the wall with a used tissue. I was pretty grossed out, grabbed my things and left. Not clear how house keeping did not catch that.

Nice staff, old dirty hotel.
The only reason I’m not rating it a poor is because the people working there are very nice, it’s a great location and is cheap. But I wouldn’t stay there again. It’s not clean. Carpets in the hall are all stained. It’s old and could be a lot nicer with some updates, like fresh paint, clean carpets, better mattresses and pillows and bedding.
