This is a great place if you need a clean, comfortable and affordable place to stay. Staff are pleasant and helpful. The neighborhood is rough. If you need a very quiet room, you can request and the front desk will make every effort to put you in a room far from street noise. Even though the neighborhood is sketchy, it has great places to eat! Just be back by 9 pm as the security gate that encloses the hotel is locked at that time.

Ok, but aging building 2
This hotel actually consists of two buildings, one seems to be recently built and the other looked like it was some city's administrative building or something like that before. Anyways, we were put in the second building on the second floor. After starting unpacking we found that A/C did not work. So they moved us to the first floor, and, comparing the rooms, it looked like the second floor room was refreshed more recently than the one on the first floor. The room on the first floor also had some old building odor. The bedding and appliances were OK, but the carpet looked quite worn and old. The staff was nice and helping, on a positive side. They also have some fancy looking restaurant

The woman that checked us in was nice in the beginning, however she was very rude when I asked about a grocery store in the area....she said yes! So I then asked where it was....she said "I'M not a mind reader". She's rude!! Also....the motel feeds stray cats (3) and they attacked my dog then me and my wife. I will never stay there again. What a shame !!
