Barely any amenities, the pool was dirty and empty. The neighborhood is terrible, you’re in one of the worst parts of the hood here, there were addicts nodding off outside and we saw a drug deal occur at the McDonald’s over there. There were roaches in the bathroom, no refund was offered or an extra night free just a change of room, and the halls smelled disgusting. Staff was okay, except housecleaning did not clean my room once (or even offer to change my towels be serious right now) and the older Indian lady had bit of an attitude the days before but it got a bit better the next few days I guess. Breakfast was just cereal and apples, and some coffee and a microwave not very exciting. Would not stay here again, I recommend spending the extra bit of money or not staying at any hotel in this area if you can.

The room was clean, the sheets were spotless but the comforter could have been cleaner. The heater worked well and I was able to run it at 68 degrees while I was gone so I didn't come back to a cold room on a sub-freezing night.

Pee on the floor when I first checked in and there was roaches. The breakfast is not really breakfast it’s only cereal and milk. The WiFi connection was terrible I could not connect to my PS5 so if you’re a gamer this is not the place to be . It was not clean and had me paranoid of bugs I will not be staying here again
