Great prices for a quick stay or business trip where a hotel isn’t an option, staff is good and the location has a lot of attractions. The place isn’t a 5 star hotel but it is a place to stay and spend the night, smoking rooms are always a plus.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The day before I checked out the front desk attendant said to me , my boss wants to know why you keep returning if you don’t like it here? I didn’t have an answer at that moment. He was mad and irate and very unprofessional. The reason I returned was the price , and they actually wash the sheets . The house keeping ladies were also very nice and friendly. Other than that dealing with the front desk attendant is a nightmare . He’s rude and obnoxious. Saving money sometimes is not worth it . Also the showers are unpredictable, they are either cold as ice or burning hot . I’m still waiting on my deposits too. What happened to no hidden fees ?
