The guy at the front desk is rude. The room was dirty, the bathtub still had dirt and footprints. I got a non smoking room and it had a strong cigarette smell. The bed sheets are so old and have holes on them.

Unprofessional manager who often used foul language and overreacted when asked to compensate us for lack of internet by kicking us out in 30 minutes to refund our last night when all I asked for was “some compensation”.

Easy road access with private parking. Outdated units but clean beds. Could use some remodeling. Found the sharp angles of the bed to be very dangerous for my chins and toddler. There were a few furniture pieces that were broken.

Tracy

Disliked: Cleanliness
The floors were extremely dirty like they hadn't been mopped for a long time. The back of the door was black from where everyone touches it. Asked the front desk for things to clean it cause I had already unpacked and she tried to turn it around on me for not asking to be moved to another room. The front desk locks the door at 7 pm so it's hard to catch someone. I have stayed here several times before and it was never this gross.
