★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Tayla C · Nov 2025

Check in was easy, location was good and front desk staff was pleasant during an easy check in. But, this was as bad as it gets for an economy "inn". The smell of cigarettes upon entering the room was overbearing, even the heater smelled of smoke, the sheets wouldn't stay on the bed, the bathroom shower nozzle was falling off, the water in the bathroom would only go ice cold or 3rd degree burn hot, the people upstairs were up stomping around ALL NIGHT, the paint was peeling and had big white filled in patches probably from leaks....I could go on and on. And for the price of the specialty room my boyfriend insisted on getting, we could've stayed at the Hilton. Overall disappointing.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Christopher Huertas · Oct 2025

We stayed here while being displaced from our home by the city. Definitely the better of the 3 options available. Staff at the desk, very friendly and knowledgeable given our situation. Cleaning staff as well. Unfortunately when we got our, bathroom was dirty. Dirty rag in plain sight. Toilet loose when you sit on it and the shower stall control needs tightening. The room is cheap and convenient, and staff friendly but don't expect the Ritz hotel

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jo Anne Sotto · Aug 2025

You get what you pay for. This place is not a hotel, it's an inn. Some of the previous reviews were true, especially the towels with hairs stuck on them that look like pubes. The sheets had burn marks possibly because we were in a smoking room, but still it should have been replaced at least. Because of that we weren't sure if the sheets were even clean anymore. We ended up not using the towels and not being comfortable during the stay. If you're not careful of the shower curtain placement or if you make a lot of splashes while showering, water from the bathroom will definitely leak out into the room. The front desk was okay, check in was not much of a problem (we had a reservation at booking.com). The airconditioner was comfortably cold, the fridge, lights and clothing iron were working w
