Just meh.
The room needs updated. The bed was comfortable. The shower pressure was good. Although the room was a non-smoking room, it smelled like cigarettes and pot when we walked in. I went across the street and bought a can of air freshener.

Cheap and dirty!
This was a dump. Dogs barking from other rooms, no elevator, people who live there sit out by all the doors and smoke. Only had a small coffee pot for the whole place. The staff was friendly enough. Felt like someone was going to break in while we were gone. No one did. The toilet was a child’s toilet. Not good lighting in rooms. The comforter had a giant stain (from the (70’s) on it. The beds were very thin and hard. We bought bug spray and sprayed. There was also food and drinks from previous guests.
2 very thin pillows.

For a hotel in this place range, this place was great. The interior could used to be cleaned up a little bit, but the owner seems to be in the middle of doing that room by room. I would imagine in a year this will be a five star hotel in its price range.
