The clerk working when we checked in was so nice. She had a great personality and was very helpful. The rooms have been nicely redone at some point. Beds were comfortable, the A/C worked well, and it was very clean. The place is in a good location near restaurants and shops.

I had a great stay at this hotel, especially for the price. Everything was clean and well-maintained—from the room to the bathroom. The towels were fresh and spotless, which is always a big plus. I didn’t notice any bugs or unpleasant smells, so it felt comfortable and well cared for. The staff was friendly and welcoming throughout my stay, which made the experience even better. A special shoutout to Kim, the manager—she was awesome and went above and beyond to make sure everything was great. If you’re traveling on a budget and want a clean, comfortable place with excellent service, this is definitely a solid choice. I’d stay here again!

Kim was amazing at check in. She was kind, thoughtful and really made us feel welcomed. All staff was friendly. Our room was big, clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.
