Nice 2 nite get away!! Literally right on the river making for good sunrise views and pics. Only 1 complaint and that was the sighting of a German Cockroach under the microwave on top of the fridge. Only saw 1 but if you manage to bring one of them home in your bag it could infest your home! Please get that taken care of... Other than that 10+... Front desk was great and even let me slide on the $30 cash deposit i was unaware of upon check in n next day gave me all the time i needed with a late checkout. Very happy with the customer service here, very accommodating. Thank You all very much!!

Pictures of hotel and rooms can be deceiving. Room was so outdated, dirty, dark and uncomfortable we had to do an early check out. Walls are super thin and voices and music kept me up until 3-4am. We spent one night out of two only. The only positive is location but even that is not worth it. Review has nothing to do with staff as they were fine but room was sadly one of the worst budget hotels I’ve stayed in.

The worst motel room I’ve ever had.
It’s a good thing I only stayed one night. The room was in terrible condition. Dingy linens and dead bugs on floor and windows. Most of the tv channels did not work. The only things that worked was the WiFi and airport shuttle.i left the place 3 hours early to get to the airport.
