Good Value with new Big Screen TV
This was one of a number of multiple day business trips where I have chosen to stay here. The bed is very comfortable. On this stay the property had many empty rooms so it was nice and quiet. The surrounding area is a bit seedy, and food options within walking distance are quite limited. My only criticism of the room is that the bathtub/shower was a bit funky.

A little unhappy
There was no coffee due to the coffee pot was broken, not sure if we had hot water as i took a shower and it was cold, told the front desk and they said boiler was out, there was a lot of homeless sleeping around the rooms that were empty, didnt feel all that safe, tv would shut off every couple hours would have to turn it back on.

It could have been better if we'd stay here before and our concerns with the bathrooms and since we got no room there were 13 flies in our bathroom and we told him about it it made seen it went and got the maintenance guy anytime I go up front to tell him I went a different room and they told me to go back to my room there's no flies there but you wouldn't tell me how they got rid of them they said that spray well you know what they did they open up the bathroom door and let him into the bedroom and therefore there is no more flies, therefore we had no more floods in the bathroom for sure but they were in the bedroom and we had to kill them all ourself and pick them up with their fingers because we hadnoo broom available in the bathroom
