Great location, reasonable price for clean but spartan accommodations. Nice to have the YMCA pool, showers, sauna, and other amenities available for your use.

Gay-friendly hotels selected by misterb&b
We strive to ensure that gay travelers feel welcome wherever they go. To support this mission, we have introduced gay-friendly hotels as alternatives to our community-based room and apartment-sharing options. This initiative is made possible through our partnership with B2B accommodation providers, which enables us to connect with a wide range of properties worldwide.
How do we evaluate these properties as gay-friendly hotels?
To assess their welcoming attitude and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community, we consider several criteria. These include support or affiliation with LGBTQ+ organizations such as IGLTA, TagApproved, NGLCC (USA), and LGBTNetwork. We also evaluate how hotels engage with the LGBTQ+ community by checking for an LGBTQ+ section on their websites, their marketing investments in LGBTQ+ media, staff training programs (such as those offered by Out Now), and their Human Rights Campaign (HRC) ratings in the USA.
When booking with misterb&b, you help support organizations fighting for LGBTQ+ rights around the world.
Find out about Mister for Good initiative in the footer and help start building tomorrow's world by making a donation.
Supporting the community is not just about survival, it's also about thriving, empowering and making a difference.
