Good for the price

I read through all the reviews prior to booking. Here is my take: Pros: price is good for quality, location was great, the beds were very comfortable, the coffee on Saturday morning was good, and the staff was friendly/helpful. Cons: our bedding was damp, both rooms smelled like cigarettes and mildew, and the room felt humid/clammy. It was a good stay for a night.

Didn’t have super high expectations based on price, but photos and reviews seemed ok. We just needed a quick spot to sleep and shower. Lobby smelled like cat pee. Room smelled like smoke, burns in the comforters, dirty, mattress was like a brick, roaches in the bathroom.
