    I recently stayed here for a night for kid's soccer tournament. Overall it's a decent hotel. Beds were comfortable, AC was working as expected,bathroom was clean & equipped.Overall room was satisfactory. Breakfast area was clean & had decent breakfast. Front desk staff was courteous & helpful. I will request management to keep drinking water available in common/breakfast area. It was not comfortable to get drinking water from the gym.

    This hotel is a simple, but clean hotel. It is also in a convenient location. The rooms were adequate, but some aspects showed wear. The good: Very clean rooms, great pillows, fridge in room..nice desk. EXCELLENT shower. very nice staff. Great location and felt safe. Great free breakfast...and clean eating area. The not-so-good: Our a/c worked only just enough to keep the room moderately cool, ironing board was broke, the bed was borderline awful. The rooms were very small. Fridge barely kept things cool. Elevator was a bit scary. Hardly any working outlets in the room...lighting f in room wasn't the greatest. This place was ok, and I'd stay here again, I'd just make sure I'd switch rooms if things didn't work. Tip: ask for a room at end of the hall by emergency exit... very quiet.
