This place actually looks worse on the outside (exterior and hallways) than on the inside. The room was basic, but clean, with some maintenance issues (holes in the curtains for example). The hallway really does smell of smoke, and you're pretty likely to encounter some drunks in the hallway on weekends, but that's not really the hotel's fault.

I've spent many nights in this hotel and would stay again. If you just need a place to crash for the night and a shower in the morning, this place will do the trick.

Eventually they found a play pen, and it smelled like stale smoke too! The bathtub didn't drain, there were stains on the carpet... Pay a few bucks more... More

I honestly have never stayed in such a pit. The price was that of a nice hotel. It was just dirty-dirty-dirty. The AC was not working in the first room. They moved us to another with slightly better AC. Both rooms were filthy. The girl at the front desk did try to help us. The oriental restaurant next door did... More
