“I think this hotel mostly appeals to extended-stay business travelers, given its location and full in-room kitchens. The social events and pet-friendly policy add a home-like touch. However, from what I've gathered, I would say that management must address some severe issues of cleanliness and financial safety for it to be a reliable place to stay.”
