Several guests found the beds comfortable, though some mentioned Wi‑Fi or TV issues. Many praise the staff’s responsiveness, while a few report rude interactions or refund disputes. The location is convenient to the interstate, University, and event center, though the area feels sketchy to some. Expect a budget stay with clear trade-offs.

Noisy corner. Random price gouging. Two dryers: one out of order, the other gives you damp clothes after an hour on normal setting. Terrible wi-fi. Good: new bed quilt, stairs repair and attention to greenery.

I was in room 202 and it was very clean. The property is well maintained with minimal trash outside. I will definitely stay there again. The area is a bit noisy due to the intersection and the trains passing by but that is not the fault of the hotel. The breakfast offered was minimal ( honeybun, coffee, and a piece of fruit) but for the price and cleanliness, I’d definitely recommend staying here.

The stay was ok. The room was decent but no usb charging ports. Bad satellite with no guide channel. No channel listing to lookup stations. The interior was dated and mostly clean. The outside looked rusted and poorly maintained. Breakfast was a joke. It was gone by seven with terrible items. Overall a six out ten just because room clean and nice staff almost all else bad.

While the exterior and grounds look a little sketchy, the room was nice. The bed was comfortable and I may have slept better than I do at home. The reception was good and check in was easy. Be aware that there are people who live here so you will see random people watching out their doors and windows. Parking is iffy, don't expect a prime spot in front of your room.

Left immediately after checking in. The room was damp and reeked of mold and mildew. Obvious signs that the ground floor room has previously flooded and not repaired. Very gross conditions. We didn’t even unpack, was in the room under 5 minutes. Realized immediately it was a mistake to book here.

Air conditioner worked great. Would definitely stay there again for the price.

The bed was clean and comfortable, but the bathroom was in serious need of repair. The ceiling had holes and brown stains on it. The walls were peeling, and the non-skid tape on the bath was brown. Also, the place was right near train tracks and a busy road, so it was very noisy. The guy at the front desk was super nice and helpful, but the building itself needs some major work.

I've stayed here before to save money, and I realized that this was an old property with some long-term residents. This time my expectations were more realistic and I was pleasantly surprised. The gentleman at the desk where I registered was incredibly hospitable, and the room was clean and had everything a solo traveler would need. I brought along a "noise" machine that masked exterior noises which was helpful considering the main railroad tracks just across a busy highway next to the hotel. I had no problems as a result, but it is a noisy neighborhood so be aware. I saved a ton of money, and I would stay there again - and I will.
