Very noisy at night. Extremely poor wifi connection. The hot water pipes make very loud sound in the middle of the night. Staff is friendly, but that doesn't help to rectify the issue. Upperantly owners are aware of the super loud noisy pipes, but have not dealt with it. The noise from the nearby bar is going until around 2am and you can here it in the room. I will not stay there again.

Road work outside created unbearable sound. No elevator. Shared bathrooms. Thin walls. Bed was horrible. Not worth the money- do yourself a favor and spend an extra $100 bucks and stay somewhere we you can have your own bathroom.

Wilma at the front desk was awesome! The room is clean and has its own ac/heat unit. The bed is comfortable. It’s very quiet. The communication is excellent. And the cost is very reasonable.

The electronic door lock kept malfunctioning. The towel rack in the bathroom was falling down all the time, and I woke up to loud construction every morning. The last night of my stay I had a cockroach on my bed by my pillow.

The room was hot, couldn't get it to cool off. (Heat rises) The 5 flight walk up every day killed me. (all the walking added to fatigue made my knee hurt alot) the room was clean, shower clean, not good water pressure due to being on 5th floor, but just took longer to bathe. .

pros: clean, location, no fills, VERY BASIC. Cons: NOISE!!!! you will not get any sleep here because the street right outside has plates and every time some is driving over it, you will absolutely hear it. I do NOT recommend staying here if you're just looking to rest your head, there are better options for a few more bucks.

There were weird clunking noises happening randomly the whole time we stayed. The WiFi also did not work very well on the upper floors, our room was on the 5th floor and we could hardly get a connection in our room.
