Very good

Terrible neighborhood with many homeless.
Bed sheets were not smoothed out when put on. The breakfast was a bust. Toaster not working, microwave not working, no sweetener, no jelly, just not maintained. Two pots of coffee and one was cold in spite of being on a warming plate. Room was clean and comfortable. Great outside lighting.
This is a good hotel. They've renovated it recently and it's located in a part of town with much walkability. I've ranked it a little lower than I might because 1) the mattress was too soft for me (but that's just me) and 2) for some reason, the sheets made me feel itchy. No bugs, mind you! Perhaps the detergent they used, although I'm usually not sensitive.

Liked: Cleanliness
I like the convenience, the property was centrally located
The carpets we’re disgusting, the first room we was checked into was dirty with hair on the floor and trash in the cans, the place has some very shady looking people going from room to room and car to car at all hours of the night and strong odors of weed smoke
Do not stay here. I have stayed a few times through out the summer for work. My last 2 stays I have been double charged. Resolution does not come promptly. Both times I have paid on Hotels.com before my stay then once again charged for the same stay on my debit card, once during my stay and another the day after I have already checked out. I have receipts of payments made prior to my stay and I am continued to be double charged. This is such a disappointment and frustrating situation this hotel continues to put me in. Save yourself the frustration and DO NOT STAY HERE.
Check-in was a very confusing. The hotel had me checked in the previous day of my reservation, and someone was already in my room. However, I was accommodated with a room. Extending my stay was attempted by a staff member who obviously had no business behind the desk. Couldn’t answer any questions and only response was “That’s just how they do it.” Who is they? You’re at the desk! It was extremely inadequate. However, the room was good. Spacious somewhat clean. Cleaning staff wasn’t very thorough and inconsistent. I’d say overall 5/10.
