Clean, comfortable and a good value

Price was good for a one-night stop. Pleasant and efficient front desk staff. Hall decor and elevators did not give an appealing initial impression; carpet was frayed and looked very dated. Colors need a refresh. Guest room with two queens was spacious and clean, however, and beds had comfortable mattresses and pillows. Appreciated that bath gel, shampoo, etc., was in refillable bottles rather than throwaway single-use plastic bottles. Breakfast was quite unappealing. Powdered eggs, tough sausage links, sugary yogurt, instant oatmeal packets, cheap bread slice, fake orange juice, and no fruit.
