This is a very low end hotel. Upon arrival I immediately cancelled my reservation and sought out a new hotel.
We planned on staying here the weekend and ended up leaving early due to the conditions. When we got ready to go bed, we pulled down the covers and found massive brown stains all over the sheets as if someone rolled in dirt and had already slept there. There also appeared to be bug residue in the bed. When we did further investigating, we found bugs behind furniture and in the shower (not your typical palmetto bug). We then pulled back the pillows and found several condom wrappers behind and under the bed. At that point we asked for another room which was denied. Then asked for the room to be cleaned and we were told we had to wait until the morning. We were unable to be refunded for our stay and got zero help with an unsanitary room. I highly recommend against this hotel regardless of being so close to the stadium!

The staff is responsive. The location is great for football games. I would not describe it as luxurious, but since I was solo, it was sufficient for my needs.

Staff was friendly , helpful and on point . Hotel is very very dated but what you would expect from a hotel that is walking distance to the stadium. Not a place I would stay for normal travel but great place to stay for game days due to location and again , great staff!!
Stay wasn’t 100 percent hotel needs updates nice rooms. Seems 2 roaches bed had stains and hair just shook it off and changed the sheets. Drain in room 114 was stopped up ended up telling a worker. She came and looked at it and attempted to fix it.
Poorly maintained building. Room was not clear with a bad smell. Toilet did not flush and missing towels. We did not stay and drove to a different hotel.
If you want to be close to the Stadium, this meets the needs. Unfortunately, the room is pretty beat up, but the bed was clean and comfortable, and the front desk crew is friendly.

Great location to go to a football game. Besides that unsure.
Location is good to go to a football game but our room was dirty, the bathroom was particularly bad. Shower was nasty, and had no water pressure. AC unit was held together with duct tape. Workers were nice but our room was never cleaned.
