The hotel is very unimpressive from the outside, but our room was very nicely equipped and very clean. Unfortunately, the mattress was so hard that it was like sleeping on a floor, and the lack of additional pillows and/or blankets didn't allow for us to improve the situation any.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I would rate this property as a zero. The hotel offered very few amenities, and breakfast was not included. The staff did not ask whether I required any disability-related accommodations or additional assistance. The hotel also appeared to provide temporary housing for displaced residents, which was not clearly explained when I made the reservation. Most importantly, the location did not meet my needs. It was far from the Metro, restaurants, and the places I needed to visit. Because walking is difficult for me, the inconvenient location created additional transportation problems and expenses. Overall, the property was not represented in a way that prepared me for the actual experience.

Not a bad hotel for the price Had all the amenities that one would need for a short trip. The rooms were clean and luckily we didn’t face any smoke smell or bedbugs issues as suggested by other reviews. Keep in mind it is priced low so do expect to have different population of guests.
