The property was clean. Staff was very nice. The only issues were the fan in the bathroom sounded like a jet taking off and it was hooked to the light. So every time you were in the bathroom you were ready for take-off. And no shampoo.

Location was great, staff was nice and straightforward but thats where the good stuff end. The rooms are smaller than usual, there were alot of construction/work order noises within the building during the day, these are stuff I won't fuss much about. Now apart from that there was odor coming from the A/C- heater unit that was slight but still existant, the bathroom didnt come with shampoo and/or conditioner and the hot water wasnt hot but lukewarm/slightly cold! They also charged the 50 dollar deposit I dont know why. Ridiculous place.

For a quick overnight, this property is fine. It was clean and comfortable. The room was no frills, but did have a fridge and microwave. The public restroom and the laundry had "out of order" signs.

Great solo stay for the price

I booked a room ahead of time during my drive up the East Coast to visit family. The room was perfect for a solo stopover and very practical. Great pub and grub establishment in the shopping center across the street. Very pleased with the room and location for the price.

Yup, good stay

The person checking me in was very polite and professional. The room was tidy and well equipped for my short stay. The bed felt like a dorm or hostel but for the price, I was grateful. The room actually looked like the online pictures! How often does THAT happen :) It was a nice quiet evening with great access to anything anyone would need nearby. Would stay again.
