Hotel Details

Each room includes a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a refrigerator, and a microwave. The suite option has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with 3 beds. Some rooms have been renovated with new beds, flooring, and paint, and can be spacious. However, room conditions are inconsistent; some rooms may have cleanliness issues, including mold, insects, and worn fixtures. Road-facing rooms may experience more noise, while the building is older, so a request for a quieter, updated unit is advisable. The metal bed frames in some rooms can be noisy.
