This is an older property. They are attempting and successfully doing some renovations. The bathroom was nice and the bed was comfy, so that is most important. Location was good. A few questionable folks hanging in the area, but I felt safe.

Room reserved was unavailable. Switched to a different room that was well below hotel standards. Peeling paint, windows and doors that didn’t seal properly, toilet was faulty. Staff were conveniently unavailable to address any issues. Management was supposed to call me back but never did. This is a hotel of last resort. Only stay here if you’re desperate

This property should NOT BE on Expedia. It is falling apart, windows are brown and open and can easily be entered. Room we had had no bedside lights! Only illumination was a ceiling fan light! Shower had a few black hairs as did the shower curtain although it was clean and linens were clean as well. If you are ok with No aC, no amenities and a $15 a night parking fee then it’s the place for you! But not doe me. That’s said the person at the desk that evening was lovely and gave us a welcome bag with a snack and two bottles of water. The location is good but this place is a 1 star at best. Should be closed and renovated.

Staff were rude. No manager onsite or available to address issues after 5 and on weekends. Everything was dirty and in I’ll repair. Even though they advertise onsite secure parking it is very limited. And when they don’t have parking available, you can’t switch hotels because there is no manager onsite to issue refund.

Don't believe the pictures! the place is dirty, nasty, and the furniture is stained with god knows what!. The hotels says the rooms are renovated but I have the pictures to show otherwise! I was so disgusted we left after checking in there was no way we could stay there and what's worse they wouldn't refund me because I had already checked in like I was suppose to know the room was going to be so disgusting!!! but i'm sure that if it wasn't that excuse it's was going to be another one, too bad I can't upload them here! Oh and their also under construction, the parking they assigned me had a big giant deep hole behind it that one of the construction worker told me that if I went over it the car would fall in so I asked the receptionist for a handicap parking because I'm handicapped and she said there was no more but I could park in one of their spaces outside but I couldn't because I had things that were in my car that I couldn't take in the room and there were homeless people outside. This place is not a hotel it's a motel!!!

Good Room/Parking/Location

Great location to the Wharf and all of its activities and attractions. Secured parking for peace of mind and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Rooms were great but only downside, the curtains let a lot of light in but overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

Birthday get-away not fun at all!

Rough start, more housekeeping help is needed on Sundays to accommodate a large number of new guests. Also, communication is key when informing guest about situations. Don't offer early check-in if you can't guarantee it. All in all, not the best in customer service.

Would not recommend the place to anyone. There was hair all over the bed and urine all over the bathroom toilet. The staff told us to take pictures and submit them to a website, that is not something a guest should ha e to do. NOT HAPPY. We did not stay here and left to go to a better hotel. WE WANT A REFUND.
