Will do the job

Stayed here for 4 days in May. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Building overall shows is age, the door to our room needed to be locked to stay closed all the way, bathroom was pretty rundown. The ac worked well and the room was decently clean. Furniture and bed were acceptable. Mismatched and again, just run down but for 70 bucks a night, suppose thats what it is. Pool area was nice, pool was clean. Convenient to public transpo and lots of restaurants very close.

Worst hotel ever

That was the worst hotel that I’ve ever stayed out. Filthy. The bathtub was filthy. The toilet was filthy. The floors were filthy. They were doing construction which they didn’t say until you checked in so it was extremely noisy and dirty. I don’t recommend this hotel to anybody was absolutely pits.

Roaches & Dirty

This hotel is dirty!! Roaches, not clean & elevator is not working. Did not stay at this hotel - my niece cancelled both of our reservations as soon as she seen her room. My husband is blind & has ulcers on his foot - I won't put him in a roach infested (or any other infestation) place and he can't use stairs.

Clerks had no idea where I should park to be close to my room. They didn't even know where my room was. When I went to get clean towels, there was no towels. We paid for 4 nights no clean towels. Clerks acted like we were disturbing them. I don't recommend staying. Look elsewhere.

The room was partially renovated. The floor wasn’t finished being laid. The wallpaper was peeled and had mold. No cover over the electrical outlet-live wires showing. Shower was very mildewed and needed to be re tiled. The two people we met were nice and the bed was clean. Our room/floor looked like it was partially renovated or forgotten to get finished.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel clerk and maintenance worker were very nice but overheard conversation with property manager and she was just rude and didn’t care that her guest (me) was having an issue in their room. The hotel room needs a serious deep cleaning because it was dirty. I did not feel comfortable during my stay but with such short notice on coming I would have lost money due to there no refund policy. Hotel owners really need to update and really deep clean the hotel. The area it was located in was good. My overall issue with the whole stay was not feeling clean and the rude manager. I hope she’s at least nice to her staff.
