Neighbors were rowdy and smoking right by room door. The smell of smoke was penetrated in my room. Neighbors were arguing all night. Many homeless people walking around, and one even tried to open my door at 3 in the morning. I didn’t sleep the whole night.

Budget Friendly
The room I stayed in was very small, but given the good price that I paid for the room, it was pretty much what I was expecting. Nice hotel, friendly staff, very relaxed atmosphere.

No Heat
The room was very clean...but there was no heat! I told the front office about it...I was told there was some controls on the baseboard itself. Well, there was no type of sign in the room letting patrons k ow how to put the heat on.

2/10 Poor

Disgusting
Stayed here one night for next day flight. The beds sheets had hair and looked unclean, there was food and wrappers under the edge of the bed, and the room key machine was broken so when we needed back in our room, staff had to let us in because we didn't get a room key. If zero starts we're an option, that would've been my rating.

Noisy neighbors.
When. Check in to my room the people next to me were very loud disrupted so I called The front desk and complain they took care of it, but it didn’t stop them from making noise and waking me up so I called front desk and Ask them if I can get a different room they had no problem. They put me in another room quickly, nice and quiet and clean the police came and ran the others out.

It was ok.
The room was nice, and the beds were pretty soft, but on the night before we checked out the person working the front accidentally gave the wrong room information to another person staying at the hotel and opened our door a quarter of the way before realizing that we had the room booked. It almost led to me having a panic attack but other than that incident the overall stay was just ok.

Pleasant stay
The room was cleaning, I found a few hairs in the bath and in the bed. I stayed 6 nights and on day two they collected the trash, on day four they changed two towels. That was all housekeeping did, no cleaning, no bedmaking, no replenishing of soaps shower gel. The breakfast was the normal but ran out of supplies early. WiFi worked but was slow. A little more attention to detail would have made it better
