It was not a suite. And people were living in the MOTEL. And it smelt like weed.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Don’t waste your money!! The whole place is nasty and sketchy. Shower and tub was brown. Don’t get me started on those beds they were just filthy covers not clean and had crumbs in the bed. They gave me another room but I end up not staying in that one either.
Dead bugs in the floor, pool was stupid dirty with dark green water. No breakfast like it said online. The hotel overall was pathetic. The pictures make it look 1000x better than it actually is

I like the room it was great. I book here because of it had a swimming pool (it was dirty and not even ready to be used. I wanted breakfast it did not have anything just coffee o hot water for tea. It look like it’s getting renovated because just some rooms were available. I hope when they finish it like the picture on the website.
Floor was dirty.
Towels were stained
Bed sheets were stained
Bugs in refrigerator door seal
Bugs in couch.
Inside couch was nasty
No place to hang clothes
Local drug dealer tried to sell me drugs
Stale air in lobby, poor paint on exterior, cigarette butts on walkway, people loitering on walkway, room not as expected. We did not feel safe here, it was weird. Checked in, checked out, went to another place.
I would not let my worst enemy stay here.
The place was dirty and the rooms smelled.
They didnt give us the rooms we had booked.
We canceled on the spot.
This place needs to be condemned and torn down. It is nothing like advertised on line.
This property is in a very unsafe area. It should be listed as transitional housing instead of as a hotel. I felt things crawling on me when i laid down.
There were cockroaches in the room and they wouldnt let me switch rooms when i asked. Waited at the desk for 15 minutes and no one showed up for me to check out so i called them and then told me to leave the keys in the room so i left the room keys in the room and now they wont return my deposit because i didnt check out properly despite following their instructions
False Advertising!! The property looked nothing like the photos online. It was a motel that appeared to be subsidized housing. We checked in. Should have been clued in by lobby which was smelly with boxes lying around. Drove around to the room, and after seeing the conditions immediately checked out.
