Great beds
The bed was so comfortable. We both slept very well. The room was very nice and looked exactly like it was advertised. Location was very convenient to the University stadium and several good restaurants. We were very happy with our stay

I stayed there because they have a high rating, but I was very disappointed. It should’ve been rated a lot lower.

We were quite surprised with this property. It was very easy to find and on a very straight through street. Access to and from the interstate was fairly easy. Also, very nicely renovated. We were quite comfortable.

It was fine, room was HOT.
Fine enough for one night after a concert. Was really only in the hotel to get ready and sleep. The A/C was off before our arrival and it was HOT in that room. We had the A/C on full power for at least 3 hours before it was comfortable, I was sweating the entire time I was getting ready.

For the price, it was an ok stay. Rather dingy and rundown, though not dirty. Looks like not much as been updated in decades and decades. Feels a bit uncomfortable and gloomy. Family room included a very cramped, dark second bedroom. Not the least bit inviting. Pool was a nice touch, and very clean. Staff was friendly.
