Dump

Pros: You get what you pay for -- there's a reason this place is so cheap...

Cons: Ripped carpet, no elevator, tight parking, folks bbq-ing in the parking lot. Housekeeping didn't get to my room by the time I got back from the office on three different occasions during the week I was there -- nothing more welcoming than walking into that after a long day. The room was terrible; missing facing on a bureau drawer, old cracked lamp shade held together with tape, no privacy curtain, slow internet connection. And to top things off, I was in a hurry to check out and inadvertently left some $$$ in my room, and guess what? No one saw it or knew anything about it.

Pros: The staff was very helpful and friendly. The rooms were clean although needed some finishing touches to say they were ready to be occupied.

Cons: The bathroom sink would only get warm not hot, spit cloudy smelly water out, the bath had clean water. The walls are thin, I was up until 2am hearing the other patrons having a bbq/drinking in the parking lot. Not out of control, just loud and disrespectful of others in the inn. The carpet in the hallway was torn, a tripping hazard.
