    The coffee maker didn't work. And a chair leg was broken in our room, I fixed it. But it was nice enough for the price I guess. Smelled someone smoking marijuana in their room. The elevator was way slow, but it was peaceful and quiet.

    When we got there, an exterior door was jammed and would not open so we had to take our things all the way around the front of the building to go into our room. The microwave in our room did not work. We unplugged it re-plugged it and still no power. I was very concerned about the exterior door, not opening because it was a fire escape and I mentioned that to the front desk person, and they said they would look into it, but did not seem very concerned.

    Just stayed one night. It is an older hotel but it was well maintained and clean. It was good enough for what I needed. Room door could have been a bit more sealed .

    It was fine. The room wasn't what I booked online but it was decently cleaned. The bathroom was extremely tiny and I was very surprised to see that the windows on the upper floors could be opened. Definitely something you should be aware of ahead of time if you are traveling with children.

    It was the smallest King bedroom we ever stayed in, so the space felt tight to move around in.The bed was very comfortable and the walk-in shower was the best ever! However, the floor tile was very old and dark and needs to be replaced. The parking was tricky as the hotel was quite full. The staff couldn't have been nicer 'tho not all were fluent in English. We found them to be very kind and friendly with every encounter. The breakfast room was cold but the eggs and sausage were delicious. ☺️

    Overall the stay was very nice, rooms were nice, area was quiet, we felt safe and for the most part the staff was nice and friendly. Cleaning staff seemed short and not as nice. My husband left out so house cleaning could clean but they never came and restocked, he had to go and ask for new towels and when asked for tissue the next morning, it seemed like and inconvenience. However we would stay here again.

    This hotel is at a Hooters. I think this is crucial information that people should be given up front because it would help folks make a decision if they want to stay there or not.

    The room was clean and the staff was nice but the bed was absolutely uncomfortable, the pillows were terrible (either too hard or completely flat), the traffic noise was obnoxious and could be heard until about midnight and the hairdryer was so slow that air drying would have been faster. The WORST thing about the experience was someone decided to blast music at 5 am in the morning somewhere in the hotel. I was unable to sleep while staying there. Do not recommend.

    The hotel was in a convenient location, close to shopping and restaurants. My only interactions with the staff were during check-in and check-out, but they were still great. Parking in the front can be hit-or-miss at night, though there’s plenty of parking behind the building. The lobby was nice and tidy. My room, however, was a little dirty and questionable.

    The beds were hard. They charged me 100.00 deposit and it has been a week and I still have not received my deposit yet. The breakfast was cold powdered eggs and sausage. You are able to make a waffle. So, that is a plus. Someone had a dog that barked all night. I do not recommend this hotel.

Breakfast is in a small room with limited tables, but the waffles are good. Front desk staff were friendly. Close to a number of restaurants. Parking is a little limited, and you will most likely have to park in back of the building...there is a back entrance to the hotel.

    Immediately upon entering, there was a foul smell in the lobby, and in the room. It was difficult to breathe. Without unpacking or sitting down, we went to the front desk to cancel the reservation and find different lodging. The adjustment for the A/C was on the window unit, that would indicate how outdated the hotel is and possibly the comfort level.

    I was told there would be a $50 deposit even though I reserved this and paid for this room on Expedia. I was also getting two queen beds from Expedia and although I showed the paperwork to the woman at the counter the room she gave me had one full bed. When I called down to the front desk she said the paperwork said one bed it did not it said two queen beds. I chose not to argue with her. As soon as I walked into the room it was overwhelmingly disgusting smelling it smelled dirty I don't know if it was from animals or because they don't ever clean the carpet I have no idea but it was disgusting I had to open the window on the second floor just to air the room out. The people above me were stomping around until 2:00 in the morning. I would never ever ever ever get a room at this hotel again.

    I came to stay at this hotel because my best friend’s wedding was the weekend of my stay and the venue wasn’t far from this location. Upon arrival, all seemed well. The front desk appeared friendly and they got me checked in right away. Getting to my room, it appeared clean, but as soon as I got to the restroom I suspected something might be wrong. The towels were filthy. They looked as if they had not been changed from whoever stayed in the room previously. My girlfriend went down to the front desk to ask for new towels and the woman at the front desk gave her an attitude about not having brought up the dirty towels with her even though my girlfriend explained to me that she had been kind to the woman at the front desk and just asked for replacement towels and was not complaining. My girlfriend came back with new towels and brought the old ones back. Upon further inspection of the room, the bedding was also filthy. There were blood and dirt stains all over the blankets and sheets. I brought these up and when I spoke to the woman at the front desk she was apologetic, I was appreciative of that but had no time to leave a complaint as I had little time at this point to get ready for my the rehearsal dinner for my friend’s wedding. Let me be clear, the bedding was given to me to redress my own bed. There was no offer to have us change rooms and there was no offer to have house keeping go back over the room and redress the bed. We spoke to the front desk many times, left unhappy.

My 2 yr old’s feet were brown just from walking around in minutes.Room smelled of urine. 2nd room A/C didn’t work/maintenance(the general manager/owner)came from another hotel to unlock room waited in heat bc no A/C in hallways & no air circulation. It is about 90 degrees in hallways at any given time. I stayed a year ago & hallways were same. Was told that maintenance gone for day so there were no other options. This is unacceptable conditions considering it was 88 degrees outside. This hotel has really been rundown in the past year. The carpet in hallways are disgusting as well with spills & just every day use & not being cleaned. I will not stay here again!
