Not as expected, unfortunately was disappointed. Main entrance was always locked. While building was old there were no fans or ways of airflow. Shower head broken. Room had no local channels especially during an important event such as the super bowl.

This place isn't a hotel, it's a hostel and it shouldn't be called a hotel. Most of the hotels don't have bathrooms in each room, and from what I heard of the public bathrooms they were not clean. My room had BED BUGS. I didn't see them until the morning when I woke up, but there was one on my pillow (crawling), and one on the shower handle. There was also floss on the shower handle which leads me to believe nothing in the room was clean. I've stayed in hostels for years but this place was gross. I've tried to contact the property (when I checked out there was no one to be found and I've called with no answer) to alert them of the bed bugs. But I would NOT trust this place or stay here again. It's not worth it.

Great location, most of the staff seemed nice. Bed was nice but the shower was clogged and too gross to use. The spartan amenities would have been fine if I had been prepared but it was not clear from the listing. Won’t be returning or recommending.

The room was cold and the thermostat under a lock box. Was in the ADA rooms and half the bathroom flooded when I took a shower - nothing to guide the water to the drain. A pond around the toilet until I 'swept' the water to the drain.
