Worst Decision You Can Make.

The property was nasty. Disgusting the sheets were horrible. They say they have breakfast, but do not have breakfast. They tell you to get cereal with no milk. The staffs attitude is not customer friendly. The guy threatened to call the police on me even after I proceeded to show him I had the money for my room.

Staff was nice, cleaned my room daily, but shower was disgusting the water had rotted out the metal door frame and allows water to go into living space behind the wall. Room shouldnt be rented it needs to be fixed whole wall is open and rotting mold and whatever else inside it. Only stayed due to no refund policy 2 nights for work.

OK for Quick Over-nighter w/ VERY LOW Expectations

Desk personnel were very good. Room had a couple issues with broken items, for example the toilet paper holder, but was clean and comfortable. Breakfast advertised, but I went by at 6:10am and there was cold cereal, a coffee machine, really old pump creamer containers (creamer separated or overly thick), and a juice machine.
