Main reason I booked this place was the free internet and a relatively good location. \n\nAs for the room itself-\nSmelled funky overall with extremely strong smell of cleaning agent (not just in the room, but all over the hallway. You walk out of the hotel smelling like Pinesol or something of that sort) \n\nThe hotel is supposedly smoke-free, but on several occasion, I smelled pretty strong cigarette smoke coming into my room. \n\nThe room was generally hot. Good thing it was in the winter so I could just open the window and let the cold air in. I think the AC in my room was broken.\n\nIt has a kitchen with a pretty good size refrigerator, stove, and microwave. I wasn't planning to cook in the room, but might be convenient for people staying for long term. \n\nOne other thing that really bothered me was that the shower makes this really high and creepy screeching shrieking noise the whole time it's on. Really not a happy way to start or end your day.\n\nIt is an old old hotel with old old everything, but looked really good online at the booking website. I don't think the charges were particularly cheap, either, so try to stay away if you can."^^ . "2010-11-25T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ .
