9/10 Wonderful! (79 reviews)
The property was very clean and the bed was comfortable with lovely linens. The kitchen was a great feature and was nice although we didn’t stay long enough to use it. Location was convenient to everything. When it was time to check in I hadn’t received my code but when I called I got that right away which was great.
The only reason I didn’t rate it higher was there was no air conditioning so it was pretty warm. Also it was very loud. The living area faces a bunch of garbage cans and every so often someone would throw trash in …it was very loud. We also woke up to construction at 8:00 am which was also a bit annoying.

8.8/10 Excellent! (472 reviews)
Stayed in one of five small rooms behind this bar and restaurant. Price was right, staff friendly and was quiet too. It's about six miles from center city but right on a major, frequent bus route. Adequate lighting, pretty clean, good wifi, might have been a signal issue with TV but that might have been a setting too. There was only soap and no shampoo on the bathroom which was a little disappointing. The bathroom fan also didn't work and there was lots of peeling paint in there. Carpet was a little old. Radiator heat and bathroom heater but no AC. It had a kettle, tea and coffee and a hair dryer. There was a closet with many hangers and a four drawer bureau. I would stay again.
