I took a chance, but trust me DO NOT take a chance on bed bugs. Less than an hour in, we were covered in bites. HIGHLY NOT RECOMMEND. Unsanitary, unkept, unsafe. Even worried about leaving our car parked outside.

Don’t stay here if you don’t want cops called
Stayed off and on for a couple weeks while my husband traveled for work. Room wasn’t bad but people outside screaming cops everywhere the front desk scans your license into a database and calls the police if they find anything how can they do that isn’t it against privacy laws. Constantly accused my husband of smoking in the room when he didn’t and of us cooking in the room when THEY provide a microwave. Was told we couldn’t have excess luggage which we didn’t a couple bags and why should it matter how much luggage we have if it’s confined to our private room. We were on the bottom floor and had constant running of kids in the hallway and in room above us which I do understand some noise but sounded like they were ready to come through the ceiling.

Didn't even stay the whole night. Our building was #4 which was hard to find, and the "pathway" to rhe entrance was between two buidlings whoch had no lighting. My husband and i were with our two young children and everyone we came across was sketchy (peering out of windows, pointing to us from down the street, people congregating on the stairs and whispering). Wven during check in, the clerk was telling me about some lady who kept bothering everyone who walked by. The showers were rusty and the fridge was not clean. We stayed long enough to grab a quick shower and leave to find another hotel Total waste of money!!

Adequate
You know what you get when you reserve RRI. Not very safe with beds on wheels. Never seen that before. Overall could use a refresh.
