The price is right but easy to fix stuff like the ice machine and newish floors peeling up in places needs to be done. It’s very spartan but clean. Be advised it’s an unmanned lobby with a remote check in at a kiosk.

I have been staying here once per month due to work, some stays are longer than others and I always leave a tip for the cleaning lady or ladies, on my last visit I came back as they were still cleaning my room and I asked if they got the tip I left, to which the cleaning lady said no, when I notice the manager or owner was walking. The same area I asked her if she got the tip from the bed area to which she replied yes, I really hope that the tips are been given to the cleaning ladies, which I don’t get why a manager has to be around the cleaning ladies, I hope they are not keeping the tips. It was an odd situation.
