    Checking out!!

    Everything. Very dirty, slummy and felt unsafe

    1AnnePosted on: 3-26-2024

    Nothing¿we did not stay there

    The parking unprotected, far from the entrance, no covered walkway. Very down at the heels, windows with broken, askew window coverings There was torrential rain as we approached. The parking lot was a distance from the door, no portico

    3Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 10-9-2023

    price and location to airport

    the rooms are worn beyond reasonable

    7Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 1-2-2023

    They definitely change the sheets, bedding was clean and comfortable. Love the full size fridge and microwave. Older rooms but they are pretty clean.

    My only complaint was I didn't have a chair by the table but it was no big deal, hopefully next time.

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 10-22-2022

    Super nice gentleman at desk gave us waterfront view room.

    Spooky noises periodically throughout the night. Through the wall and seemingly from roof area.

    9MichaelPosted on: 10-13-2022

    The best part about staying at this hotel, for me, is definitely being by the water and watching the sunrise and sunset. The location is by far, my absolute favorite part!

    What I did not like about my stay here is the lack of desktop/countertop space in some of the rooms as well as chairs/sitting areas. Otherwise, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here.

    Old, Dated, Dirty

    Price, waterfront location, lovely park next door.

    Rough around the edges, especially the bathroom.

    5Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 5-7-2022

    Big tv, view of the water

    Trash still in room and dirt stains on sheets

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 4-27-2022

    Location is nice. Being on the waters edge was nice. The adjacent park was nice for walking or relaxing. Older building, but exactly as expected. Everything that I needed for my stay.

    Hotel is old and not updated. There were stained tiles in ceiling. There was an inactive construction(demo) zone out front of the hotel. The demo zone was a "Nightclub" that WAS out front. I was happy its not there, but the demo makes parking far

    1Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-7-2021

    The location.

    Yes the appearance, cleanliness and parking lot.

    1Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 8-2-2021

    I was to scared to stay there

    4Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-19-2021

    The air conditioning worked and the beds were comfortable

    Very old. floors and bathroom were dirty. chipped paint every where. the police were present for an issue with the one of the occupants. complimentary breakfast was advertised but there was none provided. no ice machine.

    8DanielPosted on: 4-14-2020

    Pretty much everything j.g all the extras for the money location

    Construction but park and river made up 4 it

    5Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-21-2019

    Location was great! Shuttle services were appreciated.

    The room did not smell that great. It was clean, though.

    10KetiaPosted on: 7-3-2019

    cleanliness, spacious

    the fact that there was no pool.

    5ChristopherPosted on: 6-17-2019

    Very close to the airport - convenient.

    There is not much sound dampening in the walls. We could hear a great deal of noise later in the evening.
