I've stayed here a couple times. It's perfect for sliding into town overnight and staying near places I tend to frequent. Nothing fancy, but comfortable enough.

Hotel hallways smelled like pot, and common areas were a little run down. But the room was clean, and it didn’t have the same pot smell. For a lower price point, it was as expected.
