Devonte was the nicest while checking us in, Elizabeth at the universal counter is amazing at her job and was a real hero and the spa ladies were our favorite. Sokie and the ladies need a big raise. Everyone was so sweet, the Starbucks ladies were very nice and always a nice break during the day.

I stayed here for two weeks, but I was quite disappointed. The building is very old, and the rooms dirty. The air conditioning didn't work. The internet is very slow. Some staff were attentive and responded to my concern, but others didn't seem to care. They try to sell you stuff, both in-person and through text messages that they constantly send you. The whole place has a cheap vibe.
