Nonsmokers room smelled like smoke, couldnt check in for 10+ minutes because no one was there and there were no be back signs, looked a bit musty, freeway nearby is awesome but walking is terrible, and how can you advertise free internet when the speed is 5 mbps?

Lots of homeless walking around property. Needles and razor blades in the parking lot. Opened the room to check-in and several roaches were running around the floor so I immediately checked out and left

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Stayed one night before flying out early morning. So, tried to go to bed early. Tons of road noise. Noisy guests next door that kept slamming their door. Someone from the hotel knocked on my door at 9:30 pm. Didn't get a good explanation as to why. Just didn't feel safe here. So put chairs and my bag in front of the door. Guy at reception was terse. Just put a hold on my card for damages and told me there was no breakfast. Which was fine because I checked out at 5am. But, might want to take the breskfast timing signs in the elevator fown. Garbage in the parking area. Elevator wasn't operating in the morning, guessing for security reasons.

I went inside to check in but nobody was at the front desk. I waited and waited. Phone rang a couple times. Rang the bell a couple times. Yelled out hello. Finally, 7 mins later somebody came to assist me. Next morning I checked and again no is was there to assist me. I ended up leaving my key where it said to. Night window. This was around 8am. I replied back to a than you your visit text saying I left the key as asked so there’s record of me leaving it there. Waited almost 3 hours for confirmation so I ended up calling the property and he said oh I just now texted you back. I’ve been staying here for a few years now and never had I encountered this.
