I reserved a room a month in advance for $50 extra charge to pay when I arrived. My plane was late and I didn’t check in in time. They gave my room away and charged me $133. I went next-door and never looked back.

Unpleasant experience

On the outside it looked good, just as the pictures on the website, but coming in was a whole different thing. The reception was dirty and trash around the floor. The room was run down. Had no smoke detecyor(seemed like someone pulled it out) the closet door was a curtain and the bathroom left a lot yo desire. The fink was greasy and the tub was in terrible condition

There was no king room available as we booked and when the clerk went to change us to a queen room, suddenly he was unable to do anything to get us checked in. We had to scramble and pay more than double the cost to stay at another hotel. This hotel is awful, staff was unaccommodating, unhelpful and showed zero remorse for the situation. It seems they wanted us to leave because they had a waitlist for the night and could charge much more from the discounted rate we received for booking early. Awful service. If I could give zero stars I would.

The place smells really bad and i used their laundry machines that cost 5 dollars to wash and 5 dollars to dry and had to dry 3 times befire my clothes wrre dry which cost 15 dollars and the front desk told me it wasnt their responsibility. Also the muffins were moldy. Its disappointing because it used to be a decent place to stay also there was dead spiders in the shower.

A good place if you just need a bed to sleep in. It was clean, but the curtains didn't block out the sun, and there was constant noise in the room (fridge?) and in the hallway. Then the “to go” breakfast leaves a lot to be desire. The coffee is never refilled and most of the snack are gone. It’s supposed to be until 9am, I got there at 8. This is the second time staying here, I believe in giving second chances, but the same exact thing happened. Will not be returning.

In this area, you get what you pay for. It's literally a bed. Expect no amenities, dirty carpets,and a plethora of smells.The breakfast consist of old muffins and cereal bars. However, by far the cheapest place to lay your head if that's what you need. My fridge had an odor that clunge to anything left in it long enough to get cold. Plenty of hot water though!

My home away from home

The people that work there are amazing. I always look forward to being greeted by Alan and the other staff members. The beds are so comfortable and it really is a great overall value for the money. It’s in a very safe neighborhood and it is the one hotel that I return to time after time

Dirty kitchen, food left in drawers. Zero amenities here. No utensils etc. No blow dryer, no ice machines. For an extended stay it was extremely stripped down. Front desk staff was absent most of the time and when actually there rude and short. No greetings when entering and no help with things missing. Grab and go breakfast did not happen, coffee only. Complete waste of money.

I booked three rooms with two double beds each for my father-in-law and his group several days in advance. When they arrived late at night to check in, none of the rooms we reserved were available. Instead, they were only given two rooms with a single king bed each—a completely different setup from what was needed and confirmed. To make things worse, the we were only offered a $50 credit for the inconvenience, which doesn’t come close to making up for the stress and lack of accommodations. This completely disrupted their travel plans and left several family members without a proper place to sleep. Booking in advance should mean something. I’m extremely disappointed and would not recommend this location to anyone who expects reliability or decent customer service.
