We had encountered several issues with our stay. Upon arriving just after 6pm we had to wait to check in as their office was closed. We made several calls to their emergency number. We were given the wrong code to our unit and had to wait again to find the owner. Our unit was infested with fruit flies, no soap and barely any kitchen supplies. I had to go back and ask the owner for some apple cider vinegar to try and create a trap. Additionally our unit wreaked of marijuiana and the air conditioner did not work. Upon arriving we had to sign an agreement that there are no refunds. That should have been a red flag.

Not the best place to stay.
I’ve stayed at Affordable Suites many times in the past and it’s a no frills old hotel but I like the location and kitchen availability and size. However this trip, the room we got was much worse than usual. It was dusty, the lock on the door was broken, there was something hanging from the microwave that shouldn’t have been there. And the couch which you can normally sit on was extremely stained. The extra sheets were balled up on top of the shelf as if they were used. My expectations weren’t a 4 star room, but it is in a serious need of some upgrades.

Stayed here twice with over a month in-between each time. 1st time I was on the top floor and it was super quiet, Only complaint was the ceiling fan couldn’t be on without the light being on, something was broken with it as my other room worked fine. 2nd time was legit terrible, I think I slept 3.5 hours and woke up a ton from the person next door to me coughing and smoking weed till 3:30am and the person above me stomping till 1am. I guess get the top floor because people have no common decency nowadays. I probably just won’t stay here anymore.

Cleanliness not up to par
We chose this hotel as it included a kitchen and was reasonably priced. At first, the suite seemed pretty nice for the price, but after our one-year-old crawled around for a couple of minutes, we realized that the floors were filthy--as in they hadn't been mopped in weeks or months. My son's knees and feet had black marks where they had made contact with the floor. The counters had sticky stuff on them, and the bathtub drain immediately backed up after we turned on the shower. Needless to say, we were very disappointed with the cleanliness. Glad we only stayed one night.

I was pleasantly surprised with the room. Although I read that a kitchen was available, I didn't expect it to be so nice and the entire room was very clean. We especially liked that all the rooms faced the courtyard and needed an access code to enter. The courtyard also offered 2 BBQ grills, and table & chairs to use for outside dining. Very nice facility. Would definitely stay there again.

OK for quick overnight
We received a phone call at 5 PM the day of our arrival telling us that the lobby was closing early and that they were going to text us the door and wifi codes. The bed was not really comfortable. The road next to the hotel was very busy and we could hear the traffic noise inside the room.

Check in.
Would have been nice to be able to more easily connect with someone on site for a late check in. Had trouble with getting in room. Found out where the managers room was from another person at about 9:40pm. Otherwise not sure i would have known what to do.

Great value!
We've stayed at this place many times in the past, but haven't been there since 2019. It was very clean and the staff was helpful, but it seems a little rundown since the last time we were there. The beds could use newer mattresses and the furniture is beat-up. There are also seem to be people residing there, which is more a complaint about the state of housing in the U.S. than a complaint against the hotel. The prices are up a little, but not as much as most other hotels. Overall, I like this place and would stay again.

Rooms very roomy - bed comfortable - great attention to germ control. Looks pretty new. Restaurants close by. Only suggestions are - lighting is pretty dim and only have a light on one side of the bed for reading. Also, spotlight on outside sign kept the room from darkening.
