Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were incredibly considerate, especially given that there was a citywide power outage on the day I checked in. I was kindly escorted to my room and comprehensively debriefed about how they were dealing with the outage. They were clearly stressed, and did not at ALL make it my problem. However, the room wasn't clean (hair in the bedding and shower), the room lacked a trash can, and the toilet paper dispenser had been visibly ripped from the wall and not replaced. Loud confrontations by other clients occurred throughout the night. I have pretty low standards for cheap motels, because I understand that I get what I'm willing to pay for, but this one was beyond the pale.

Functional

All staff members were nice. It is a very old inn and in desperate need of upgrades. Location is good for where I needed to go on foot. The free parking was a plus. It did come with a TV, Microwave, fridge and coffee maker. All functioning. The furniture is very old but they were in the middle of getting a large delivery and what could be upgrades for the furniture in the rooms. Overall not a bad stay but it not luxurious what so ever.

Property was decent. Very nice furnished rooms. Seems like they were remodeled recently. The staff and service were friendly and accommodating. Found some ants in the bathroom during one of my days which was unpleasant and there was water leaking from around the sink. The internet service was also quite bad and could not watch tv without it buffering.

Well the staff was very helpful and friendly. But the rooms was very run down and some of the occupants were shady. The bathrooms were remodeled I guess for just sleeping it was ok.
