All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The only truly redeeming aspects are a very reasonable transportation access from the airport were little other close by hotels exist and the significantly lower price over alternatives. This makes the shortcomings something that you have to accept. Perfect hotel if what you are looking is to save 200-300$ over alternatives nearby in order to catch a plane the next morning.

Smell of smoke in the room was uncomfortable and the light didn’t work in the bathroom.
The outside looks like a run down flea market the price was $10 more upon arrival, our bed we so uncomfortable, i was like sleeping on rocks, we seen 2 cockroaches crawling around the day of our departure, i brung it to the desk clerks attention and they played it off like it was no big deal and it was a normal common everyday occasion.... would sleep in my car somewhere before ever going bad.

Disliked: Amenities
Room, while somewhat small and dated, was clean and bed comfortable.
The bed was lumpy and painful, there was blood on the sheets and bath towels. The place is run down and dirty and a horrible are. I had to leave and stay elsewehere.
Matresses were squeaky and hard i could literally feel the springs. The floor was dirty. Reception smelt like cigarettes and the room also smelt bad i had to buy an airwick. No coffee maker in the room. Night before we left we saw a cockroach.
