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.

Have stayed at this hotel for many years (more than 20) but it seemed not as popular as it was. Everything in the facility is fine, though no free breakfast buffet, might keep customers away. Couldn’t understand the low occupancy. I’ll stay there again as it’s very convenient for me.

This property is huge and has friendly staff. I did not like how its one way in and out. Sounds like a hazard waiting to happen when there is numerous locked gates around the property. Also be AWARE if your room has a conjoining door, you will hear your neighbors getting LOUD & BUSY if you catch my drift. The place is clean inside and out.
