Neat and convenient

A little hard to find (no signage). It was convenient once we found it but the shower head needs to be replaced and the light in the gym needs to stay on. Other than that it was a pleasant stay.

We ended up booking another property after seeing the condition, and talking to the rude front desk operator. We didn’t have the option for a refund, but decided we would rather stay at a clean decent place.

Meh.

I understand it’s a budget hotel. However, the photos are outdated. The gym has 3 rickety old machines and there is no breakfast offered as advertised in the photos. Not a dealbreaker, but the facility should update the descriptions and photos so customers can have an adequate expectation.

This property looks nothing like the pictures. I did not feel safe so I had to book another reservation. The front desk clerk was nice though. The spaces are outdated and gives “dirty”. The bottom of the doors are dirty and everyone is loud. The furniture in the room are not the best. This property is the definition of “you get what you pay for”.

Horrible hotel

I never checked in. The front desk clerk was extremely rude and gave awful customer service. The hotel was super nasty and homeless people were everywhere. Did not feel safe staying there so I never checked in. Choose to stay at La Quinta Inn much nicer and cleaner.

Very Dirty

Needed something just for a few days and based on the price, I think I was still expecting a little bit better. Checked in had to move rooms three times due to the rooms being dirty. Finally, I stuck with the third room however, there was hair on top of the bed in the sheets stains on the curtains kitchen was dirty, but I did not have any other options so had to stick it out. If you don’t mind cleaning everything yourself and need something with the kitchen then this could work for you. But if you want something, three stars are better. This is not the place.
