The one thing I really liked is that there were no bed bugs. However, there is a pool, an outside pool. Our stay was well received and had great encounters with the staff. They were accommodating and our stay wasn't too bad. The room could have used some maintenance, the water pressure was a bit low. There was some fixtures missing and the bath tub was painted, therefore making it a bit slippery and while taking a shower, the paint would fall off. If just staying for an overnight trip, depending on your choice of bells and whistles, it's a good stay. If you plan on staying longer and are picky, it's not for you. It's in a great location for shopping and restaurants.

It was a place to sleep, nothing special. Room and hallways were pretty dingy with peeling paint throughout and on the walls and bathtub, and there were hairs on the bed.

Number of issues. Very dirty smells like dog and cat piss everywhere.The tvs might or might not work, that also includes the refrigerators. The lock on the doors might or might not work. Someone’s kid was playing behind the desk so the attendant had to tend to that instead of checking me in at a convenient time. Never a good experience after times of trying to give it a chance.

Complete trash. Every room I’ve ever had smelled of animals. Last one the paint was chipping out of the tub and walls. Smells like cat piss everywhere you walk and the doors to the outside are never locked fully and if they are your key can’t get you back inside. Very unsafe and smelled like cat piss

Smells like cat piss everywhere you go. Not to mention dirty as hell. Customer service sucks. They make some people pay a deposit and some get away with no deposit. Not to mention the prostitution ring they got going. Highly recommend to not come here unless you just ratchet like they are. Outside doors don’t lock or open with your key. No real signs to tell you where your room is and the guy working the office never says what room your in just gives you the key and you gotta find the room yourself, which like I said is impossible to do. Crackhead ass white lady cleaning the rooms is rude as hell as well.

To enter into the building the outside door was open. There was not needed to use my key to enter. My room was ok for what I paid for it. The bed was a plat form base and very uncomfortable. The bathtub was peeling off and flaking into the tub. The shower head was loose and spraying water out of the shower onto the floor. This was just used to sleep after a long drive. The price was low so, I did to think it would be much more than a dive place. I would not stay here again.

Very disappointed in the quality of services, cleanest of the property and lack of security measures for the external doors. There should have been a keycard reader on the back door. The lights didn't work near the bed area. The rooms were smelling. The bathroom tub needs to be reglazed, it is missing the tub stopper. The lobby area and hallway was full of trash. We stayed on the first floor in two rooms. The pictures on there website did not represent what we stayed in.
