Hard to locate as it has only one way in/out and comes off the street (one way) with a small sign only to direct you between and behind other businesses. Had to circle around to find it. But location made it quiet. Nice staff.

I enjoyed my stay here. This is an efficiency hotel for value so it was good for my purposes. Lots of restaurants nearby. You can walk to the convention center. Staff was very friendly. Book room on 2nd floor and you’ll have a better stay in my opinion, though the hotel was very quiet.

Fine enough.
It did what I needed it to. If you're going to be in the area and you don't plan to spend much time in the hotel itself, this is one of the cheaper options. Still too expensive for what it is, but that's all hotels these days.

Breakfast could have been better, just toast, bagels, bananas, yogurt, tea and coffee. Very limited selection. Property was well maintained, the bed was comfortable, the room was clean. The entrance to parking lot is a bit steep. Just need to be careful of the grade and go slow to avoid hitting the underside of your car on the conrete
