The staff was great and very helpful. They were the most pleasant part of my stay there. The room wasn't very clean. The sheets had hair on them and the floor was not clean. In the middle of the night, on the first night there, there was a flying cockroach in the room. Housekeeping never came to my room, so I had to constantly ask for toilet paper. They never came to get the trash or give me fresh towels. Also, there was no phone in the room, so I had to constantly walk down to the office to get anything needed for the room.

Me and my family couldn’t even stay at the hotel it was so bad. Bathroom was disgusting! Kitchen area and refrigerator nasty! Floor was sticky! Oh yeah and the key didn’t work at all. When I let the front desk know she didn’t give me another one I was told to let them know when I need to get in my room. I was never offered another key! I would really like my money back we didn’t even stay in the room 3 hours.

We decided not to stay the night there. After checking in we did not feel safe. There were some sketchy looking folks in the parking lot. People were sitting on the stairs and didn't want to move. At one point, someone had their phone out taking pictures or video of my family. We left before getting to our room and booked a room across town

Exciting news! New management. The new GM, Tay'Yah, has hit the ground running and has already started making improvements to the property. She added a dog potty station, installed cameras for added security, and began remodeling the rooms. More improvements are coming, I bet. Come and stay with them.

It is what it is. It’s a no frills place to stay. No ice machine, no coffee maker, no cups. Just a bed, shower and a place to poop. I70 being in the backyard so to speak kept us awake , but there’s nothing they can do about that.

Arrived at the property well within their hours and no staff available. Called on the hallway phone as instructed by a sign, a few times - no one answered. Rang a doorbell by their window a few times. No people to help check in. Found their number online - said it was no longer in service. I left - place looked like long time renters lived there and as a single mom with a kid - I did not feel comfortable at all to stay.

From the outside, the place looks nice. Then, you get to the service window, and it starts to seem sketchy. The attendant was friendly and inside a protected area. We took the elevator to the third floor, and it jolted so hard that the ceiling looked and sounded like it was going to fall in. This happened every time. In the room, there were used hair rubber bands on the floor, cigarette burns on the bath tub and toilet, shower curtain was dingy dirty, and the toilet seat was not attached properly. The bed was clean and relatively comfortable, floor was sticky, and the air conditioner was extremely noisy. This place has “extended stay” visitors living there, and a lot of the rooms are in disrepair, as seen through the open windows. We will never stay here again.

Arrived to check in, the exterior was run down. Room wasn’t clean, had a moldy smell. Area around the motel wasn’t safe & we were told by our Uber to not stay there again because it is unsafe. Will not ever stay there again. Security guards walking around outside in the middle of the night. Highly DO NOT recommend this place to anyone!

Upon arrival, the hotel was disgusting outside. Several people must live there, as they had all their stuff spead everywhere. Trash was everywhere and the building could us alot of repairs. After waiting 15min before anyone greeted and checked us in, We were put on the 3rd floor and told elevator was broken use the stairs in the back. The whole place stunk of pot so bad that we had to get air freshener from the store. I should have known better when i arrived and saw they keep security on staff. This place is not it!
