This place is terrible when I saw the room I refuse to sleep in these conditions.
I ask for a refund because I booked the same day and it was not granted I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone!

We stayed at this hotel for 15minutes before checking out!
Property was filthy and had an awful smell. Nothing looked clean as well as cockroaches everywhere. You don't feel safe at this hotel.

Liked that the staff was pleasant and helpful. The room was very clean and tidy. Microwave and small fridge worked well. There was no coffeemaker. The toilet was not secured properly and no bathtub stopper. Broken fire alarm. Paid $40.00 extra for the two dogs.

Never went into room. Left and won’t go back. Awful. Passed out drug addict in front of the door to the room I was scheduled to have. Go to a different place, you will thank me later.

The property is located in a high crime area. The rooms are dirty. The sheets and bedspreads are old and scratchy. There was a lot of activity late into the night outside in the parking lot. I can’t believe Expedia does not check these places out.

The staff is very nice qnd professional. However the area is not what was expected from the pictures that is showing on expedia. The room was very clustered and the closet was on the door where it was hard to get in.
