"Overall, I'm satisfied with my choice. I needed an after hours check in. They accommodated with my key in a lockbox. The first night was rough. The springs in the bed were worn out in the center. Felt like sleeping on the inside hinge of a book. Thankfully they were able to move me to a newer bed the next morning. Pros: Fridge and microwave, close to stores and restaurants, friendly staff, ample parking. Cons: The breakfast was sad, lamps were in various stages of disrepair, the tables outside welcome loud late night socializing, lot's of construction right in front of the hotel."
