the check in was great, room was clean, just the edges of the tub were dirty. but what bothered me the most was how noisy it was, I was in second floor by the loby and you could here people talking with the staff all night until like 2 or 3 am and early in the morning, none stop.

Place is on a busy highway and it’s difficult to pull into the facility without causing traffic. Whole place smells like strong detergent smell you would think it would be super clean but floors are not properly cleaned. Floors where dirty and bed cover has 3 cigarette bud burns.

Terrible Place - Do Not Stay Here

I wish I could give this place 0 stars. I left after 3 hours because the place was a pigsty and absolutely disgusting. Everything was dirty and the bed felt like it was going to snap in half the second I sat on it. Management is equally awful, as they would not even give me a partial refund. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!
