Very old and bed was very old and uncomfortable. People coming and going all thru the night with doors slamming shut. My bath towel was dirty and the other towel had makeup on it. I do not recommend.

The lobby elevator light flickers. Constantly. Literally constantly. Like in a scary movie. Its cartoonishly a sketchy motel from the outside but the rooms arent half bad. Clean and pragmatic, about what i could expect. The front desk guy was pretty chill, gave me some silverware for my takeout.The building however is decrepid and honestly hard to get comfortable in the building. Its a room, itll do you fine. If you can afford the difference to an actual hotel, its probably worth the peace of mind and aesthetics.
