The room was very clean and modern for an older building. The beds were very comfortable and room quiet considering how close we were to train tracks. I was surprised I did not hear my neighbors which was a bonus. The Staff were very nice and efficient during our check in. I felt very safe and comfortable walking to dinner which was close by. The surrounding neighborhood was older but very well maintained. I would recommend and definitely stay again if I’m in the area.

Expedia should make proprietors aware of customers' specific requests so they can be responded to appropriately. We were disappointed our ground floor request couldn't be fulfilled and settled for 5 steps up at the rear.

It was a bed for the night.

Worst hotel stay I've ever had

Although the family running the place was really nice, this was unfortunately the worst hotel experience I've ever had. The first room they put me in was seemingly clean, but once the AC turned on, the whole room stank of feet and rot, like something died in the AC. They let me switch rooms. The second room smelled fine, but the curtains didn't fully cover the front windows, meaning bright light was shining in all night long. There was also about a one-inch gap between the bottom of the door and the jamb, which let bugs in, and by 3 AM or so the room had filled with moths and mosquitos. I checked out the next morning, and despite having reserved the room for four nights, they did not offer me a refund on the remaining three nights. I'm sorry to the family running it, but this place is just bad.

The room we got did not look like the picture on Expedia. The floor was so dirty that everyone’s feet was black. The towels didn’t match. They required $100 deposit, and wouldn’t cancel the reservation. They said I would have to contact Expedia.

Beat up hotel, but for the price not much is to be expected. I called about my deposit the day after as I was told at check in I'd get it after check-out. Was told I'd get a call back and nothing. 2 days later called again, again was told I'd get a call back. 8 days later, the lady who checked me in said she said it would take 7 to 10 days to get it back. I reminded her what she told me at check in and she said no no it's longer. Will be filing a dispute with my bank. Such a waste of my time.

Don’t do it!

We motels stay ever! Super rude at the desk. During the day, while I was at work, they tried to enter the room without permission, the first time waking my girlfriend up from a dead sleep, standing at the foot of the bed. The sink in the bathroom would not drain. Unusable. The door had no peep holes and no way to lock it from the inside that did not involve a key. The curtains were too small for the window and you could see right into the room as you’re walking down the sidewalk. Also no icemaker that we found. Small bathroom towels.
