Bed was uncomfortable to me. One of them squeaked and could not use it. Peeling paint in bathroom. I could not but snacks there as the only accept exact amount and I did not want to use my credit card or put it on my account. I would not stay there again.

Friendly staff. Nice beds & shower. Good equipment in the workout room (dumbells would be a nice addition). Breakfast is decent but limited. Bring earplugs; the walls are thin.

Room and facilities: The place is a decent size, and everything is functional, but overall it feels somewhat outdated and not very well maintained. For example, the mirror had several black spots, and the sink was noticeably lower than those in other places I’ve stayed. More importantly, it seems that the staff may not regularly check all the amenities provided. For instance, the hand soap in my room was completely empty when I arrived. Breakfast: This may be a personal preference, as I generally like to have a hot breakfast. Most hotels I’ve stayed at provide options such as scrambled eggs with sausage or bacon. However, this place only offered cold boiled eggs and cold ham. I may be the only one who minds this, but it was honestly the first time I’ve had cold boiled eggs served as a breakfast option. I would have appreciated at least one hot protein option.

Overall this hotel did everything we needed it to do at an exceptionally reasonable price. The rooms (and property overall) were rather dated, but clean and secure. The air conditioning worked well and the beds, while a bit lumpy, were otherwise fine. Breakfast was also pretty average, though the Greek yogurt bar was a definite plus. Very convenient property location right off the highway and next to the MAX train. Would definitely stay here again.

Going outside the hotel, I did not feel safe because of all of the homeless people that badger you for money and other things. Just felt very uncomfortable. We really like this hotel and the staff is wonderful, but we’ll probably find another place to stay next time.

This hotel was nice and the people that work there were great. But it definitely still smells like cigarettes and I was a bit disappointed in the breakfast. There was no hot meat, so it was not a traditional continental breakfast and I wish there were more options. I will also communicate and share that those who are looking for a queen size bed. You may want to request a king in the future because the queen size beds were more like a full-size bed. Not enough room for myself and my husband.

The room was very nice. Breakfast was very good, much more than a continental breakfast, and the location was good. The only comment I have is to have better signs where the rooms are and instructions on how to get to them. Also, a welcoming fragrance at the lobby would have been a plus.
-
We loved the location and amenities. The beds were super soft and only two pillows per bed.
-
Location, size of room, easy check in, coffee maker and multiple choices in room, and breakfast with lots to select from. Easy parking in hotel lot. Nothing. While some complained about the parking fee ($13), this was clearly communicated in advance.
-
Location was perfect. The room was clean and I loved that the shower water was warm right away and perfect water pressure. Had to walk around to the front desk to enter after 10pm, sign said it's for guest safety, but it seems more risky walking around the dark parking lot than getting direct access to the hotel.

Like supporting the hospitality students — also really appreciate the very easy, very reasonable parking and convenient location.
