“A Clean, Simple Place To Rest Your Head”
check-in is listed as 3pm, and we arrived at 1pm. we went to the front desk just to ask if we could keep the car parked there, and instead the woman checked to see if our room was ready and we were able to check-in 2 hours early! she was very nice, the check in process was simple, and our room was at the nova. this is a great place to stay if all you want is clean and simple (and aren't worried about having a big room - they're kind of small), which is exactly what we wanted. the bed was comfortable, the A/C worked great, there was a fridge and microwave. they don't have an ice machine, we had to buy a bag of ice from the rite-aid a block away. it was quiet, with no parties the night we were there. if you want a room that has access to the balcony shown in the picture, you need to request staying at the dawn - the nova's balcony has no view but a brick wall. if cigarette smells bother you, don’t stay here – while the rooms are clean you can tell this is a smoking-friendly hotel as it lingers in the air and on your clothes. the one minus for late sleepers it that check-out is at 10am, instead of 11am.
