Mostly serves as a transient home for underprivileged families and individuals waiting for Section 8 housing. Property is pretty beat up and needs a deep cleaning. The guy at the front desk is a hero; he makes things happen without most of the supplies and resources needed. Such a shame because it could be a decent place, even with the clientele it serves.

The property is being renovated so it can be loud at times but it was confortable. The pricing seemed a little sketchy, almost like a bait and switch, but the general manager was very nice and professional. One of the girls at the front desk didn’t care that I booked through a third party for $55 a night and told me the rates change daily and that I was Upcharged at $65 a night. At no point during my stay, nor my extension, was I told my agreed upon rate didn’t matter and I had to pay the higher rate until they came knocking at the door asking, several days early, if I was check out or extending.

The stay was rough…the room was dirty, poorly patched walls, chipped paint, dirt blinds, mismatched carpet, outside of microwave dirty, trash cans in public breezeway filled/some over flowing and smelled sour. Property smells of marijuana and so did my room’s bathroom during the evening. When I went to check out there was no available to take my room key/only a note on the door with a number which I called letting them know where room key was left.

Sloppy renovation projects ongoing & they’re leaving rooms unkempt for guests. Not a good time for getting a room here, but it should improve once the work is completed. Headboard was removed from wall leaving a very unsightly scratch & sitting in a corner, they didn’t even bother to remove it, is one example.

It was a terrible experience!!!! Don’t go here. Came to stay one night didn’t make it past a couple hours in the room… bugs in the lamps, mold on the walls and ceiling, bugs on the floor, hair everywhere in the bathroom, pill bottles from previous stayers. The people were nice when they weren’t out back smoking got a refund in a timely manner and left the same night!

Rude office staff. Lack of on site maintenance. After a power outage that lasted over an hour being restored there was cable, internet and Wi-Fi disruption. Every channel stated that it was scrambled. After 12 hours of disrupted services I check out a day early. They are refusing a refund of the time I was not there, which was an entire day. Entire property littered with garbage.

We arrived the room after walking through very smelly stairs and hallway (smell like someone pee there). When we enter the room, the floor was very dirty with pieces of nails. On the bed sheet we saw hairs and one small mice popped. Everything was so dirty and filthy. The shower and the small kitchen.

The hotel is definitely very dirty. There were cockroaches, it smelled entirely of cigarettes, and the carpet was completely stained. For the price, it seems like there’s no one actually cleaning the rooms. It was absolutely filthy. We had to stay because, at that time of night, there were no other options. But if I could give a score below zero, I would. I honestly don’t know how these people can offer a service like this. Staying on the street or in your car is safer and more hygienic than staying at this hotel.

Room smelled awful, bedding stained, walls dirty, hole in door, dead cockroaches, loud talking in walkways late into the night, blinds on window don’t sit tight to window so there is a gap where anyone standing outside the room could just look into your room. The ccheck in staff was solid they did a good job in a tough situation.
