The building itself looks nice, seemingly new paint. The room needs paint, and to be cleaned. It lacks upgrades. Unfortunately I will not be staying there again.

My biggest complaint is that the vendinf machines dont work so you cant get bottled water on site. Our Direct Tv didnt work, but they were able to get us a better room with a working tv. The wallpaper was peeling in places but otherwise rooms were clean. Decent hotel if you just need a cheap place close to the Shoreline Amphitheater.
