What is advertised and what we got were not the same. We arrived early for which we were explained check in was after 3:00p so the staff could complete cleaning all the rooms At 3:00pm we were assigned room 258. The clerk had much difficulty entering the necessary tasks to complete the transaction and I had a reservation for two days made in advance. After being assigned the room we opened the door to room 258 and were greeted with trash on the floor, no towels, linen bunched up on one bed, no beds made. I immediately went back to the desk clerk explained what we found. I was assigned a new room. It was better, but not to a reasonable clean standard I am accustomed to. This hotel is not what I would recommend for kids, (I had my grand daughter with me). Not please with what was advertised vs what I received… needs a lot of work

This property is very affordable. It's located downtown, very close to the TCC. The staff is very helpful. I like how the room are set up. Main room in the front, then the sitting area is separated by the bathrooms.

We picked this hotel for the location and price. It seemed clean enough, however, there was a good-sized cockroach on the floor at the foot of the bed when we entered our room! It was quickly disposed of and we found no other problems. We had a lower level room, which has it's advantages. However, the people above us were busy most of the night, into the early morning hours. The floor was constantly creaking like someone was pacing the floor all night. At first I appreciated not having any carpet in the room, until the all night floor creaking. Thankfully, we were only there one night, and that night all the rooms were sold out.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The room was fairly clean, but the toiletries were used, only two towels, the TV was unplugged, the phone did not even have a cord and was unusable. The room also had three doors, and is located near a construction site. I did not appreciate how you can hear all the noise the people on the second floor were making while I was trying to sleep. I almost bumped into a scary looking young African-American homeless man as I was stepping out of my room. The listing for this Inn says it offers a breakfast buffet, but all it consists of is packets of oatmeal, muffins, bagels, but no cream cheese, toast, some "one per person" microwave breakfast sandwiches that were soggy and tough to chew on, apples, coffee, and orange juice. VERY DISAPPOINTED AND MISLEADING!!

This is definitely a bargain hotel, which makes sense for people who just need a place to sleep during their travels, but definitely not for a family that plans to spend time chilling at the hotel during the day. The staff was great! When we asked for more towels, they brought more towels within 15 minutes. Also, the breakfast was pretty good for the cost. Our biggest issue was with the cleanliness of our room. The top bed sheet had black smudges, the towels as well. Our bed sheet had what appeared to be a make up stain on it. Also, the floor was clearly unswept. I am not a fancy person, but I would never stay at this hotel again.
