This is not a Fairmobt or Holiday Inn but if you want a clean and cheap stay then this is it. Room was simple but clean. Nights were quiet and bed was comfortable. This not a fancy place and the neighbourhood is sketchy at best but staff are friendly and helpful. Lots of restaurants and shopping nearby.

It was clean and in the process of being slowly upgraded. One section looked like it was a low cost monthly rental area and the other section was the motel which for most part was upgraded. It’s located about two blocks from a rather rough area with homeless and drug use visible on the street.

We arrived early as my husband was under the weather. He was asleep by 5:30. They had work to do outside our room, but rather than just start it, the manager called me to ask permission to drill outside our room. I told her my husband was already asleep, and she honored that. Impressive. The room was clean and fresh.
