Cute but loud in the AM

Pulling into the lot quite a bit of homeless people in the area. While the room was wondeful the beds were hard and once it reached 8am it was very loud. The staff or guests made continuous noise until about 10am. There is concrete walkways so all the cards were terribly loud. Beware if you think you can sleep in.
