For the price it was what would be expected. It was clean, bathroom could have used more attention (shower had hair and looked dirty . The first night the tub drain was clogged and maint had to come can clear it. The second morning the toilet was clogged. (It’s an older building I get the plumbing is old) for $70-$80 a night it’s worth it. Not sure if I would pay more. Staff was very friendly and I like the idea of not having to check in and keeping track with a key card. All in all if you are on a budget it’s perfect.

Room was not bad for us. Comfortable. Clean and quiet. I did not get the email or text about the door code check-in, etc. Probably because it went to the spam folder. I was able to get in contact with staff when we arrived late Friday night. Property was renovated approximately updated. We will stay there again if necessary.
