Absolutely disgusting. Room smelled musty, poor conditions overall and that was even when they upgraded me to one of their better suites. Guaranteed never to stay again. Would have left if i could have found anything else at 11pm when we arrived. Almost slept in the car!

Well the office attendant was amazing. Very welcoming, sweet and accommodating. The rooms though horrible enough space yes. But the paint peeling off walls there is a literal gap behind the toiler and wall that looks like it seperates all the way to the first floor, the bath tub nob is literally a screw you turn, and shower head leaks to the roof. $120 dollars for a night id never stay here again.

Not eorth the high price

There was some problem at check-in using my business card to pay for the room. Luckiky, it was able to be resolved. I cant believe it was $100/night for ghis room. Ive stayed in better motels for $50/night. The smoke detector was beeping from low battery and i called the front desk and they never did anything about it so i just disconnected it. The room smells bad, like wet carpet or something. It's in serious need of a renovation. The area it's in is kind of not so nice, and on our 2nd night someone was playing loud bass in the parking lot until 2am. You can also hear your neighbors through the adjoining walls, so that's fun. And also, just look at the pic of the bathroom. The only positives i can say is the water stayed hot for my shower and i didnt see any bugs.

If you have kids I wouldn't advise this place.

The actual room itself was clean and decent but the atmosphere is toxic. Had a guy offer us coke, had prostitutes going in and out of certain rooms and drug activity all around the area. People playing loud music late at night, and there is no coffee in the lobby or rooms for the morning time. They don't offer anything but a room and ice machine.
