It was a decent stay but I got accused of stealing pillows when I know for a fact there was only four pillows in the room! I didn’t get my deposit back when we made sure the room was spotless the only thing was the pillows! Overall though it was a pretty okay stay. They do need to fix the cracks in the bottom of the door, we could hear everyone’s conversation walking by our room!

The staff when we got there was accomodating because they switched us to room on the ground floor after we found that we were put in a room upstairs and they didn't have an elevator My husband can not do stairs very well. What we were very disappointed about was that the floors were so dirty that we had to always have shoes on to walk around in the room or our feet would be black. And one day when we returned to our room it had not been cleaned at all. Bedding was unmade, no clean towels, etc. Also we discovered a roach crawling across the wall. Thankfully we only found one.

Room smelled like smoke was supposed to be non smoking but wasn’t allowed since we weren’t staying there three days. Lamps were rusted over. Air conditioning didn’t work well, shower didn’t have tub stopper and was very rusty. Bed however was comfortable. Drawers of dresser were off track and broken. Customer Service was nice had a 25.00 Deposit.

The room had mold, the shower didn't work, there were roaches crawling around, fridge were dirty, door didn't lock all the way, key stop working. The Receptionist wasn't friendly, she also got my information mixed up with a previous guest and gave me all their credit card information and put us in their room. I WILL NOT recommend.. Run and go the other way.

The hotel was OK. Check-in was quick and efficient. The desk person was friendly and helpful. My room was on the second floor, the only one on an interior hallway - so my window just looked out on the hallway. The room is large and rather dark. It seemed well-cleaned, although the tub/shower was not the best (mold on the inside of the clear plastic shower control, nasty drain opening), and the corners of the tile floor hadn't had a lot of attention. Some exterior surfaces (specifically, the steps to the second floor) were rather dark and dirty. The included breakfast was quite skimpy (coffee, juice, some muffins and bagels).

I bought a fan because I wouldn’t dare turn on the nasty ac system. I had to clean and disinfect the room myself it smelled terrible. I barely let housekeeping come in cause they prop the door open and bugs get in I stayed for 2 weeks and the second week I found a dead mouse inside my brand new fan after housekeeping cleaned. I left and only got the money back for one week instead of my whole stay. The manager was very unprofessional kept making it seem like I was the problem knowing damn well her place is gross. I took the dead mouse to her in the fan asked for reimbursement for my fan and she denied it and told me I was something else. Save your money! Not worth it at all. It’s noisy at all times of the day. There was a homeless man sleeping next to the vending machines. Really adds character to their vibe!
