"While the rooms are a tad shabby, the lobby is lovely, the staff is helpful, the location is great and the price can't be beat. I paid $96 per night and when I checked with the Wyndom across the street they wanted almost $400 a night. Wow!! A few things they could improve: the windows unit A/C was noisy and the halls could probably use a deep clean but for the price it was a real bargain. "
