Cons: The bathroom sink on my floor had one spigot for hot water and a second/separate spigot for cold water. It wasn't possible to wash my hands with warm water in that bathroom, so I used the ...

Pros: A nice, little hotel tucked between other small business on University ave. I even missed it the first time I walked by because it was so inconspicuous.

Cons: The room smelled a bit weird, but considering the age of this place, that is to be expected.

Great staff, mediocre hotel

Pros: staff & location

Cons: after traveling for 2 years for my work around the world, this was the only hotel without cable (news) television. only local. even the cheapest motels have cable or satellite tv. and it was dirty--the microwave smelled, the carpet was dusty and food mess on the table.
