Staff was accommodating and responsive to requests. Mattress was comfortable, HVAC unit was relatively quiet and temperature was easily adjusted comfortable. Breakfast was a bit less offerings than typical hotel. Train tracks are close enough to hear the trains at night, traffic road noise in the morning. Downtown, not a lot of restaurant choices in walking distance. Rescue mission is nearby and some folks in area that are in sad circumstances, but did not feel dangerous.
