Hotel looks abandoned and ran down from the street. Interior not as bad, but very, very dated. As evening came, the parking lot filled up and guests were visible and visibly checking in. Free parking a plus, but some apprehension giving the look of the exterior of the facility. The excellent service and friendly staff made up for the feel of the facility. Every shift within the front desk was consistently friendly, bubbly, helpful, and always smiling. That would make me give the facility another try.
