Extremely dirty and in poor condition, with staff who appear very lazy and unmotivated. It is overpriced for what looks like a run-down motel.

Book only if you need a bed to sleep in
Room was very dirty and falling apart. Only one light worked. The air conditioner leaked on the floor in the room. There was no hot water. The bed was somewhat comfortable. Worst hotel I have ever been in.

Only good for college kids on a budget.
Room was in poor condition. Paint splatters and bits of trash noted all through the room. We ended up not even staying in it cause it smelled bad and looked like we might get robbed in the middle of the night. Great location but needs upgraded badly!

First off walking in it was funky in there. I very room hall way and dining area all had this horrible smell. There was roaches in the bathroom in the tub crawling around. The parking was terrible as well. The customer service was the best thing this hotel had going for them

The staff was great. You can't blame them. The hotel was in very poor condition. The room had dead roaches and bugs. Rat droppings, bed stains. The garage was a complete mess. This hotel is neglected by it's parent company and spends no money on maintenance. It needs an overhaul. I do not recommend.

Best value. Don’t expect 3 stars but it is cheap!
The water pressure wasn’t the best. Water temp was mediocre. The bathroom main light didn’t half the time. My TV didn’t work.
It was the cheapest and most convenient room. I was the only to sleep and have parking without spending hundreds a night. The staff was really friendly and helpful with what they could do.

The bathroom trash can had trash in it. I get it’s an older building but it just looks trashy. The valet people asked if I wanted to park my own car. If you are charging valet prices then people shouldn’t have to park their own car. If you are charging for self parking, then you shouldn’t advertise valet. The desk

Needs upgrade! Did not feel safe!
The towels were stained the beds were stained. The door does not lock or is secure. We had to put out chair between the bed and the door and the door still opens that way. There’s a big hole in one of the outlets. The carpet feel slimy. There’s no cold water in the bathtub. The paint is chipped all over. Just a terrible building.
