First room smelled liked poop. They were not happy to move us. Stairs were metal and felt shaky. Next morning went to have breakfast and there is none. Supposedly since Covid yet all sites where they are featured show free continental breakfast. Phone blinks off and on intermittently at all times. Breaking point was finding roach on bathtub second night. Next morning microwave, fridge, and tv stopped working. DO NOT Recommend.

Great water pressure!

I could feel the springs in the mattress, but I slept pretty well. In fact I slept better than I have in “nicer” hotels with “better” mattresses. I was very pleasantly surprised with the EXCELLENT water pressure! The room was quiet, I slept well, and the water pressure in the shower was excellent! I found good value in this small hotel and would happily stay here again.
