Very old property and the age shows. Neighborhood is safe but far from everything, mostly older people in the neighborhood. A lot of little bugs in the room. Subpar breakfast at the best. Service is great and the staff is very accommodating.

This hotel is very well situated and has a nice breakfast buffet and small lobby bar. Room was spacious but smelled with bad body odor every time we walked into it each day. Not sure if that happens in other rooms. Outside of that it was a nice property.
