The staff were nice enough, however the hotel was only alright. The hallways were unbearably warm and the AC barely kept the room at a reasonable temperture. There were always sketchy things going on around the hotel too... Very loud homeless people

Our room was very dirty upon arrival. Our bedsheets had multiple stains and dirt on them…. When we went to talk to the front desk they said they had no cleaning staff available until the next day and no vacant rooms so they just gave us new sheets to put on the bed.
