I never write reviews but this one was just an experience. No parking a lot. I was lucky I got something in front after going around the block a few times. The best way to describe the lobby is a space in between two doors. That’s basically what it felt like. The best partn about all of this is what happened during check in. As I was checking in I was greeted to moaning coming from the room that was directly above the “lobby” of this place. You can hear EVERYTHING that was going on in that room. The women was so loud and it was just so uncomfortable and I am not a prude in anyway. The women checking me in didn’t say a word you would think she would apologize and say sorry I know this is uncomfortable but now didn’t say a word. When I got to my room it was the size of a small walk in closet. It was just awful. No room to put your stuff no room to hang your coat. The bathroom was super small. It was the size of a coat closet. I asked for a smoking room they did not give me a smoking room. Never again. It was clean but I don’t think I would be going back.

My room was spotless when I got there. But, because I didn’t read the description completely to see that smoking is allowed in that specific room, I still got a whiff of smoke when I first got there. Thankfully, I was able to extend my stay by 1 hour and right before check-out time.There’s an ATM in the lobby because I had to pay for the extra time with cash. There’s a microwave in the lobby too

Overall, the hotel was okay. The room was clean. However, the room was small and stains were on the wall. The bathroom was really nice. There were few cigarettes burns on the sheets but I had the housekeeper to change the sheet. The location of the hotel was convenient; lot of restaurants and stores. It was hard to find parking since the hotel does not have parking spaces. The staff were friendly.

Upon arriving check in was smooth i reached my queen deluxe room which had a smart tv and microwave but the tv did not work. I was offered to room next door because the tv worked but the room was way smaller so i stayed in my deluxe room. The next day i called for the tv to be fixed and then 2 hours later the internet went out. Aside from that the room was clean once the tv worked properly it was great. One of my favorite places for a weekend staycation

My stay was cool, check in and out was easy. My only one issue was my room was small as hell, the queen size bed was side ways, the bed took up most of the room which made it feel really small and tight. Maybe try to put a smaller bed in room 204.

It got the job done if you really just needed to lay your head at night. I think the building is not smoke free so our room smelled of cigarettes smoke and it was pretty strong and quite uncomfortable that way. Otherwise everything else was good and generally safe. No bugs.

I arrived at the hotel to check in and the clerk at the counter was very rude and disrespectful. He was trying to have me give him another person’s license if they were going to visit me and I explained to him that I was there by myself and he did not want to hear that. He kept talking about incident that happened at that location previously and that’s why he’s so caution and I explained to him that I made a reservation myself, and my card was on file and I presented my drivers license to him so he does not have to be moving and yelling at me like I’m a little child. I would not recommend dealing with that staff member again.

They say they accept pets and everywhere online says they are pet friendly and then in the middle of our stay there after a few days they decides they aren’t pet friendly anymore and ordered us to leave the next day. Terrible customer service and business management.

The hotel is located in a rough-looking neighborhood. The room key kept deactivating each day. Unfortunately, I also had some noisy neighbors who did not turn down the music until security came. The hotel is located near a subway line and plenty of food spots within the surrounding area.
