Abdiaziz

Room was decent, parking a lot was safe and well lit, and it was quiet. Here's why I went with 2 stars: I checked in ahead of time on the website and it stated that there'd be a $50 refundable deposit. When I finally arrived at the hotel, the front desk clerk said I had to pay a $100 refundable deposit instead. It's honestly not that much of a difference and it is refundable but I just found it so shady and sneaky because at that point (11pm on a sunday night after a 10 hour drive) I wasn't gonna go look for another hotel. He wasn't able to explain why there's a discrepancy either, just to told me to either pay or go. Most definitely will not be staying here again.

The room was nice. View was not nice as it was to an empty lot that was not clean. The elevators were quite frightening as they moved and bounced a lot more than normal. The staff was great and very helpful. Area was decent, close to attractions and Beal streets
