The front desk gentleman at night was amazing very kind and funny. Daytime staff wasn't as chipper. Outside had alot of cigarette butts dirty and homeless people. The covers for the box spring were dirty. The payment was very inconvenient. Already paid through expedia but wanted my cc and tried to charge me different charges.

Front desk staff were excellent! Lobby was nice. Snack options beside front desk were nice. Disappointing that the pool was under renovation and was not clearly put on Expedia. (that I could see). Elevators are in bad shape and gave bad first impression. Rooms are clean but dark and gloomy. Beds are very hard. Hotel has potential but needs a makeover.
