Positive Reviews
positive:
Convenient location is a big advantage
The biggest appeal of staying here is its proximity to public transit, and to a good amount of places to see, and things to do. You can successfully spend a lot of your time exploring the city, and successfully checking off your schedule.
positive:
Decent Wi-Fi and parking availability
Two highlights of this motel have to do with those common nuances that can make or break a stay away from home. The Wi-Fi signal is strong and steady, and much to guest delight, at no charge. Parking is also gratefully free, and easy to access.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms are very dirty and not maintained
It's a tremendous disappointment and shock to many guests, who discover such poor conditions upon check-in. The rooms are often not clean, and bear a lot of signs and evidence of the previous use through garbage, stained linens, dirt, grime, off-putting smells, and other debris. Much to further dismay, housekeeping isn't that responsive during your stay either.
negative:
You can easily hear others between the walls
Bring ear plugs if staying here, because there's no insulation between the floors or the walls. You're very likely to hear the staff and other guests, and even outside traffic because of the equally thin windows.
negative:
No amenities and breakfast
Guests are annoyed that there's isn't any kind of breakfast provided, and that in-room amenities are indeed lacking. Many report that there are no toiletries, and that there aren't as many pillows and towels as there should be.
