A for effort-worked with what they’ve got-friendly
The service was very friendly. The condition of the hotel was old but they did try as far as effort in making it nice. It smelled old and the outside and environment was pretty run down. I don’t want to be fully negative though because there was definitely an effort made inside the room and it was clean overall as far as the linens and housekeeping. The neighborhood for sure had a definite sketchy feel for example lots of people just outside and wandering, caged in and broken bending machines etc. I was only there by myself on business so it was a place to sleep for me and that was what I needed. Would I want to bring my wife and kids? No. But if you want an affordable room that’s midpoint this is a decent choice.

The hotel room was decent, clean and suited my needs. It’s an older hotel, had a muggy/damp smell, AC didn’t circulate well; but overall it was good
