The young man running the desk is super helpful and nice. The hotel is clean but not super luxurious, I prefer that it does not have carpet as that always smells. I think they made traveling with a dog nice, this is my second time staying here and everybody has been very nice. I like the hotel and people. Very good for the price.

The fire alarm randomly went off. There was a weird bumping sound coming from my bathroom that i could hear from bed. The staff wasn’t around for me to check in because of the time frame office is open. The lobby phone didnt work to get staff member for check in during after hours.

The staff was extremely nice and professional. The issue I had was the smell of marijuana and cigarette smoke. Also someone urinated in the elevator. After it was mopped, the elevator smelled like urine and old mop water.
