My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was a bit inconvenient, needing more upkeep, but it's close to some great restaurants. Although the service was lacking due to staff shortages, the late checkout was a nice touch. Dining was a mixed bag with a simple offering, while the rooms had a strange smell issue. However, the price was fair for what was provided.

The hotel is conveniently close to restaurants and filled with friendly and helpful staff. However, the location felt slightly sketchy after dark, posing safety concerns. The rooms were intended to be handicap-accessible but had stained sheets. The dining was standard but lacked protein options, mainly offering sugar-loaded yogurt. The hotel is situated in an area with nearby fast-food and gas stations, providing some convenience.
