We usually stay at Candlewood Hotels and have never had an issue. This one was a bit different, the area was rough with homeless and stragglers and parking was rough due to contruction trucks taking all the parking spots. The hallways were dirty and the elevator always had a bad smell in it. Never again would I stay at this location.

I like that the rooms are big and spacious. I like that there is a full size fridge along with sink, dishwasher, microwave, and small stove top. The only concern we had was it was warm in the bedroom and the fan didn't work.
