Not the cleanest. Staff were accommodating and helpful. Wish I didn’t feel pressured to choose a room in which they give you options to choose your room. I was only able to view 1 out of 3 of the rooms they selected for me. Pool isn’t accessible, bedding could be a lot more clean so can the rooms.

Close to interstate and State Fair wasn’t that far away. Front desk was on the ball. Was disappointed that there was no coffee available on any of the days. Air conditioner worked, toilet flushed and no clogged drains. Refrigerator was very clean! Very reasonable price too.

$100 incidental on top of room cost of checking in. Which is reimbursed upon checking out, didnt know but no worries. Outlets in room didnt work and informed staff before checking in. As they have you check the room before hand. I was offered to swap rooms but it wasn't a big deal to me as bathroom outlets work. Room was clean otherwise and staff was friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness

Very average

When I arrived, the lobby was a zoo - loud noisy kids runn around screaming, a lady doing laundry right in the lobby, a group of 5 adults trying to have a conversation over all the noise - loud! The receptionist was off doing repairs so had to wait awhile to check in. She was very nice. The hotel is very dated - old dingy while boasting a larg sun outside newly opened. There were 3 bags of groceries sitting in the hallway just outside my door. Can’t wait to see what breakfast will be like. I did sleep well

Something sharp under the carpet that cut my foot. Only 1 VERY thin bath towel in the room. Asked for a couple more. Never received any! Nasty grime in elevator, lobby and room. AC not very good. Happy to check out

Ehh… not the best but would do in a pinch.

The lobby is pretty and everyone that works here was very friendly. But the actual condition of the room was just off. The room could be a lot cleaner, the paint in the bathroom was peeling off the ceiling, and the toilet paper dispenser was broken. We could never figure out how to work the TV or they don’t pay for cable. The linens for the bed need to be replaced. The room is a decent size, but the massive regular fridge needs to be smaller so it looks less awkward in the room. The price is what you pay for but it looks like the hotel is in a middle of a remodel and it just kinda stopped.

This place is an actual dump. It is contracted with the state to house homeless people. And the people that live there are disgusting. Had I known any of this I never would have booked it! Only one elevator worked and it stopped working when we were on it. Luckily we didn't get stuck for very long. The refrigerator doesn't work neither of the pools were available or working and the whole place was hot and smelled like hot trash. Immediately went to a different Hotel. Struggled to get a refund. Still struggling! But I don't care if I lose my money I was not about to stay there for one more second after being there 5 minutes. Do not book this hotel! It is absolutely ridiculous!

This facility had obviously just been acquired & was in the midst of massive remodeling but it should not be open yet. It was in no condition to have people staying there. Fortunately it was required that we look at the rooms & we declined to stay. I am trying to see about a refund.
