Excellent for the price.

If you prefer a very firm mattress you will have an mzing sleep. It was very clean and felt very safe. The rooms do need a refresh and smart TVs. Faucets are 30+ years old, bathroom for sure is very old. I will stay again 100% because of the safety and price.

Average budget accommodation. These are basically student dorm suites rented during Summer. Check in is super slow, one person only and it was a line up of more than 10 guests. Suites are two simple small bedrooms, a kitchenette and small dinning table with two chairs and a standard bathroom. They provide lenins, towels and soup. Excellent for out of town budget stays.

Tried to be frugal

Easy check in. Helpful and friendly. Decent price buuuut being 45 I should have realized it’s basically a dorm. Bed was super thin, no boxspring. No smoking on any of the properties but allowed in your car. Make that make sense. Anyways to top it off there was a fire alarm drill @ zero dark stupid, (dramatic it was 7:30ish) then it went off again which was a mistake. Would not recommend to anyone that enjoys comfort.

I was disappointed in the room...was expecting more of a hotel room. This place offered no COFFEE maker..a kitchen that had no amenities what so ever a kitchenette with absolutely nothing...the beds were comfortable and the shower worked well. The toilet seat looked soiled and stained..sure it was clean but didnt look it

Very basic, no tv, no amenities, just a basic place to sleep, did have wifi but unsecured. For the very few dollar's i save it would have been better to stay at an actual hotel. Not recommended. This is basically a college dorm.
