Find some place else.

Pros: There is nothing I can think of. If it hadn't been 10:30 PM, I'd probably had tried to find someplace else. Cons: There were 2 buildings of rooms; maybe there's better rooms, but mine was not good. The halls were dimmly lit, they looked dirty, and had worn-out rug runners. Everything in the room (furniture, sheets, blankets (with holes in them), pillows, etc) looked old and worn out. I wasn't sure if they were even clean. The mattresses were worn out and lumpy. The pillows were flat (maybe 3 inches thick). The doors did not seal well and the locks were hokey. The neighbor was cra

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff. Good location with easy access via railroad and bus network. Reasonable pricing with extra amenities provided for our extended group during our stay. Cons: Hotel needs general refresh and remodeling of equipment / inventory. Cleaning and hygiene in the room and shared spaces might have been better

I needed a place to crash and it got the job done.

Pros: The manager offered me another room for a faster check in time, which was convenient as I needed to store my luggage. Cons: Housekeeping was questionable. There were mysterious black flecks on the counter in my room. The blanket draping to the floor on my bed looked a little dirty. The shared toilet looked like it hadn't been cleaned recently (not filthy, but there was dust/debris where the lid attached). There were no washcloths available where towels/washcloths were stored in the lobby. They were not left in rooms. Building was just very old and a bit run down. Not as nice as the websi
