We stayed here with our kids on a trip to watch the MLS game at Geodis Park. We were able to walk safely to and from the park, which was our primary goal in booking the hotel. The room was low frills but had everything we needed and made great use of space. The mattresses were a bit overly firm, but overall it was a great experience with a great bang for our buck. I am typically a bit of a hotel snob and wasn’t sure how this would turn out but I have no regrets and would absolutely stay here again. The area was safe and had great proximity to restaurants. Check in was a breeze, I had no issues.

Will be back again!! Super cute little hotel that is well decorated and in a great location. I loved the vibe. The Sunflower cafe is one of my all time favorite restaurants and it’s right behind the hotel. This is a major plus to me and almost makes this tiny little budget motel feel like a destination vacation!

The room was great and the best thing was that the beds were of a normal height. Mom was with me, she is over 70 and always has a really hard time getting into and out of beds at hotels because they are so high and was thrilled to see that she could actually go sit on and get in the bed without struggling. Made her smile.
