The hotel is very clean and well maintained. The room is cozy and nice, and television is small. There is no body lotion or hair conditioner in room. One important thing to recognize is that their lobby hour is 8am to 10pm, and this is strictly kept. If you arrive by an early morning flight or somehow ended up arriving late at night, you will be in deep trouble. Perhaps this can cause some difficulty for time-sensitive business travels.

I really like this place! It reminded me of my own home, quiet, cozy and clean! And the owner of the property is so nice and warm! I saw some other comments mentioned about homeless people around, tbh it's not that bad, it’s common everywhere in this city, not hotel’s fault lolll
