Decent outdated room
The conditioner bottle is empty. Shower water pressure is somewhat weak.
But the room is quiet but outdated.
Staff are friendly and professional.

The location felt very unsafe with a ton of homeless people wandering around the area. We didn’t stay, we left and found an another hotel due to the iffiness of the location.

Okay for a one-night stay
Our stay at this hotel was fine -- not horrible, but not good either. They had a problem with our two-room reservation, so our kids weren't able to be in a room right next to us. The rooms were small and dark, nothing like the pictures online, though clean enough. Our neighbor had barking dogs and the smell of smoke in the elevator was so strong we could literally barely breathe. The best thing about the free breakfast was that it was free -- otherwise it was pretty "meh."

The room was dark, only provided with one towel for the stay, and I had to walk to the front desk to get more. The toilet paper roll was almost empty. Felt like a prison
