Location was great! Room was semi clean, outdated. Kitchen had everything but we didn't use it. No access to washer/dryer, water refills. or vending as the basement was flooded prior to our stay. My least favorite thing was not being able to turnoff the heater. I had to open windows to cool down. And if you wasn't careful it would cool down TOO much. I woke up to 50 degrees in the room on night one. But most of the staff is great and the location is superb. Right by the substation!

The check in is very uncomfortable. You need to do everything by phone inside the hotel. It’s takes longer and uncomfortable. The parking is not covered like they presented. The tv in room is not smart and don’t have any of streaming staff like Netflix or Hulu it’s regular tv without chance to put your own streaming device because tv is so close to wall.

Honestly, for the price it is great - it’s just old, the couch feels like it has been sat on for 30 years, the tables in the rooms are shaky and unstable. But the beds are great, amenities are great - so overall, good choice, but they’ve cheaped out on the renovations.

I loved the whole setup of the hotel. It was in a quiet, convenient location. The staff was very courteous. The room was clean and well stocked. They provided dishes and the kitchen appliances were clean and all working. Didn't get a chance to check out the gym, but will definitely stay here again.

The room is very outdated and even though it's clean,there are stains that make it look dirty. The building is also on a two pipe system that doesn't allow heat and AC to be on at once, which is fine but they should reveal that be4 booking. The weather was very all over the place during my stay, luckily the windows open and the place does have box fans. Parking is also a pain. I don't think it's worth the price, but it did the job for what we needed.

We showed up at 1pm and they charged us an early check-in fee of $50. Never had that happen before and Ive traveled the world. There was a wasp in our room! Eek! The blinds are broken, kitchen is in mild disrepair and the clock is still not on day light savings time. Parking was unclear, so we are at a garage 2 blocks away. Wont be back.
