8/10 Good
"The location is awesome! While it’s not a hotel with daily housekeeping, the cleaning staff was super friendly and happy to bring us extra towels and toilet paper when we asked. My main issue was the third bed—it’s a sofa bed that was extremely uncomfortable to sleep on. Since we paid for a room for three people, sleeping on that couch made for a few rough nights. Additionally, the photos online make the room look a bit newer and fancier than it actually is. Overall, though, it was a good stay. Expedia rates it a 9.4, but I’d give it a solid 8.5. It’s definitely worth the price, especially for first-time visitors, as everything is nearby, the neighborhood is safe, and the staff are incredibly nice and welcoming!"
