Clean room and very nice front desk staff. Bed was comfortable and clean. Hotel is generally clean in the hallways but furniture looks scuffed up. Good price for a clean room in a safe area. Only one elevator that was slow.

Nice place to stay

You can tell this is an old hotel that has been remodeled. The AC controls are on the unit attached to the window. There was hair in my shower, but overall was a nice place to stay. Staff was nice and breakfast was good.
