Great location, free parking is a plus but I stayed two nights and no one came to clean the room or change towels, apparently you have to request to have your room cleaned, there’s absolutely no late check out whatsoever so keep that in mind but other than that the place is pretty decent for the price.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Bathroom was decent, water pressure for shower was excellent. Shampoo and body wash were provided. Sheets had burnt cigarette holes through them so didn't get to use them. A/c was great, staff was quick and fast to get me checked in. Value of room was fair considering these conditions. But wouldn't stay for more than one night.
