The staff checking us in was fabulous however the room was not what we expected. For an extended stay hotel we expected dishes/silverware and there was nothing. The hotel didn't have an ice machine so while it was nice to have a full sized fridge with freezer we had to leave to get ice for our drinks. There were some things in the room that could use fixing/updating.

There was dog poop on the red bricks right near the entrance.. The elavator was filthy. The place smelled bad. There was.no iron in the room. Stayed 1 night as i checked out I asked why there was not an iron in the room. I was told i needed to call and they would have brought me 1. What no iron board. These should be standard things.

They have bed bugs and because I need the hotel in relation to my grandchild's school I've reluctantly had to book additional nights. And Hotels.com not the hotel has done A THING as of yet, to compensate me for the inconveniences and uncomfortable and unpleasant stay! I recommend they shut down entirely and do a thorough cleaning and sanitizing of this place! DO NOT BOOK!

Horrible conditions- floor was filthy. Smell was nasty- cleaner smell overpowering. People sitting on the curbs- smoking near the doors- propping open the doors- because the keys don’t work. Air conditioning worked but there was still moisture in the room which made it I uncomfortable. Sheets were like burlap. The best were the two roaches that paid a visit to us this morning. One crawled in under the door from the hallway. At that point I said we were out of there. I booked for one night- did not look at the reviews- my big mistake. Immigrant housing facility- the most awful hotel experience.

This is an old dingy and smelly facility. It’s the fact the room was filthy- floors were sticky and dusty. All glass surfaces had dusty film on them. The windows were so dirty it was hard to see out. I only stay one night because I arrived late and there was nothing available around the area.

Our room was a bit worn around the edges. More seriously, the hot water never got hotter than lukewarm. Also the HVAC unit in the window emitted a bad smell in heat mode. On the plus side, the staff was nice and the beds comfortable. The breakfast consisted of granola bars only. Serviceable, but I wouldn't stay again.

Here are several areas where improvement is needed: 1. The continental breakfast options should be enhanced. 2. Room service, including cleaning at least once during a four-day stay, is essential. 3. The hallways shouldn’t have any unpleasant odors, like garbage. 4. It’s unreasonable to ask guests to return used towels just to receive new ones. 5. Charging extra for Wi-Fi is absurd; this is the only place I’ve encountered that does this for high-speed internet. 6. A curfew is in place, which means the front desk is unavailable after midnight, leaving no one to address guest inquiries. 7. Honestly, it’s hard to understand how this establishment is still in business. 8. Overall, the experience was quite disappointing.

This was a nice place, but the hot water at the hottest was tepid, and the toilet clogged. I had to call for a plunger at 1 a.m. The air conditioner seemed to be fritzy, but we got that fixed. It was a little nerve-wracking at first. Oh, yes, and the TV remote didn't work well. BUT overall it was a spacious room, and that space was super-nice for a multi-night stay. The staff was very helpful.

The building feels outdated and a bit worn out, and the common areas could definitely use a thorough cleaning. The bigger issue seems to be the lack of attention to service. When I arrived around 7:00pm, the staff member on duty was visibly annoyed and gave the group ahead of me a hard time during check-in. The next morning, a different front desk employee seemed just as irritated. With a line of three people waiting, she was more focused on chatting about coffee than assisting the guests. When she finally helped the next person, it took her about five minut

Also, there was no dining room. They offered coffee and cookies for a breakfast snack. If that is important to you, then you should go elsewhere. But, we received a very pleasant welcome and a comfy bed.
