Continental breakfast would be nice. ?. Ok I'm pushing it. ??Staff is very nice. It's quiet and nice which is what I like. The way it is supposed to be when you pay for a room. I recommend it if to all decent and respectful people. I live in the country and whenever I go to the city now I go straight there with no problem.
No complaints
Very suitable location, and really attentive and polite staff!
It’s a little old, and the sign isn’t easy to notice
Staff was very friendly, accomodating, and kind. All of our needs were met and our room was relatively quiet. Shower head was great and water pressure was good. Really appreciated our stay.
Nothing. We didn’t even stay. Photos and description are completely misleading. We wasted over $200. I am fine with modest and cheap but this was beyond anything I would expect from Booking.com
The staff was kind and gracious. Good customer service.
The toilet seat has carvings of graffiti on it. It's uncomfortable the first time you sit down because it feels unsanitary.
No breakfast, dirty towels, molded bathroom. No ice. No tissue, rough toilet paper. Broken toilet seat. Non smoking room reaked of smoke. Dirty floors. Manager banged on my room 3 times trying to get me to open the door. He had said he had a pizza? Bad I may never use Bookings again.
See above. Nothing
The front desk lady was nice, the accessibility ramp was good (using a rollator/wheeled walker), the room and its fittings (including bed & bedding) were clean, the bed was comfortably firm, the plumbing worked fine, the small fridge was clean & working, the small microwave seemed clean & appeared operative (though I didn't use it), and the floor was clean (no carpet, but I prefer that). Also, it's close to bus routes and my Uber driver had no trouble finding it. It's also close to several places to eat and walking distance to Target. Please note that you'll need to provide your own shampoo & soap; however, towels are provided. For folks used to luxury, it may seem a bit spare but, seriously, it's got everything you actually need and I thought it was nice.
Only one thing: no plug for bathtub. So I bought one at Target and then didn't get around to using it, LOL. No worries; I needed a better one at home, anyway.
Friendly woman receptionist.
No breakfast. Graffiti on the walls in the room. Plastic cover over the mattress crinkles with every move. Bathtub missing plug, no point of a tub then.
It was convenient...
