At check in i explaimed we needed a 1st floor room due to my fiancés back surgery. They said they had none ( would appear long term residents have all of those) and said we have an elevator to the second floor. We took that room. Saw a few roaches scury down the drain and a strange bloody spot in the bathroom. When we tried to leave we found that the elevator buttons to call it to the second floor didn't work at all. I had to go down the stairs and then ride the elevator up to the 2nd floor to leave. We were under the impression that it was the only elevator. We found on checkout that they're we another at the very end also apparently. Checkout clerk didn't seem concerned about the elevator buttons when we told him. The bottom of the outside facing door also did not seal at all. Not impressed and wont stay again.

I was pleasantly surprised! The grounds were super clean. Where my room was, parking always available in front of my door. The room was very clean. My tub wouldn't drain, but when I saw the maid the next day, she was able to get it fixed by the time I returned home that evening. The staff was professional, kind, and accommodating both in person and over the phone. My room had a microwave and refrigerator. You have to request an iron and iron board. They will ask for your driver's license in return to ensure you return them. A small inconvenience. So very happy with the room for such a low price! Will definitely book there again if I'm in the area.

First I was given a room with two beds when I booked one king, then I see my refrigerator is located outside right in front of the door to the room. So I went back to check in counter asked for a new room, walked in frig unplugged and TV not working. I was too tired and to frustrated to try and get another room.

The tub was not cleaned and some much was left in the drain that it didn’t drain properly when talking a shower. The staff would tell us they coming right back to drop off items and fix things and never showed up. I had to fix it and clean it myself(NOT COOL @ ALL)

I want to preface this by saying the sheets were clean, there were no bugs, the toilet and trash cans were clean, check-in was fast and easy. That being said: this place was very creepy and old and overall a little gross in the nooks and crannies. The floor clearly had not been swept at all and there were crumbs and dirt everywhere. It's just very rundown looking and I guess what creeped me out was that fact. The whole place needs to be renovated because it's dingy. But I needed a place to rest for the night and I got exactly that. So, I guess you get what you pay for!

Room had an unbearable foul smell, and cockroaches all over the place that completely dominated the room when the lights went out. You'd be better off finding someplace else. The neighbors were fighting until after 4am, and strangers were all around the hotel after dark!

I paid in full through Expedia, but the property didn’t have a room for me. Basically told me they couldn’t give me a room and I’d get a refund. Why would I not get a refund?! I literally paid in full before arriving. Left me in the dark in a sketchy area

Just a bunch of unprofessionals running the show. Showed up at the front desk after a long flight only to be told I have no reservation with them. This was very frusrating before I was eventually allowed to check in. The price in my booking was less than what I was asked to pay because I used the pay at front desk option and I was only allowed to pay for a night even though I was staying for 4. Every morning I was constantly bombarded with calls to renew. Next morning someone banging on my door and opened it up even though I locked it from behind. Reported to front desk and I was told it was room service. This place is not ready for business avoid like the plague
