We were promptly greeted and assisted. The room was comfortable and clean. Would've liked a box of tissues for the room. From the main street the noise would come through the window. But overall, it was pretty good.

Proximity to the airport is a big plus. The staff that greeted and check us in was Gabriel. He was very polite, helpful and accomodated our concern. Unfortunately the elevator was not working and Gabriel assisted us with our luggages on the stairs. The room is big and clean however we heard all the movement from upper floor and stumping of feet as people ascend and descend on the stairwell. The street noise can be bothersome if you are a light sleeper.

Good for the money Great staff!

The front desk guy was amazing. He was extremely helpful. The room was clean but very noisy. The blanket was very thin and it was cold so that wasn't great. People in the room above were stomping around all night and I only slept three hours because of it. Other than that it was great.

Going downhill

Took much longer than usual to check in as the young lady at the counter didnt seem to know what to do. She had to call her husband to figure out what to do. The elevator was out of service, the sheets were stained, we found empty alcohol bottles in the night stand and the stopper for the sink was stuck down. We have stayed here quite a few times, but this is probably the last time we will stay here.

Fix your elevator

This was my second trip there this year. The last trip the elevator wasn't working. It was in January. They told me when I got there and gave me the chance to go elsewhere. Plus they took my bag to my room. This time they said nothing until after I had checked in and paid. And no offer of help with my luggage although I didn't need it.
