A Hidden Gem in the area
Very clean room, safe, with staff that was highly professional. A gem of a hotel tucked away in this busy area of the city. Would highly recommend it.

Overall we had a nice stay, we booked last minuet so options were a but limited. The staff were all super nice and helpful when we needed anything. Did have to change rooms but it was an easy switch. Not the cleanest and doesn’t have a lot of amenities, also the surrounding neighborhoods are kind of sketch but the hotel location is in a semi good central area. If you need something affordable and last minuet I would recommend. Staff really stood out to us though! Very very nice :)

It was a good stay - need to put window treatments in all rooms - I had to use my car’s sunshade - which fit perfectly in the window so someone would not be able to watch me sleep. Other rooms had better window treatments. The room was clean no issues there I had a fridge and microwave- love that. It was a basic room which is all I needed. Convenient to where I needed to go for my class - closes to stores - felt safe walking in the area.
