Gross room with stains either blood or poop on the lamp shade and floor was coming up dirt on the floors one sheet had green gum chewed on it and worst of all they are what used to be a days inn meaning they lost the naming rights to the worst franchise possible because of how bad they are! Was awful tbh
Very basic room. Tired Hotel.
AC very noisy.
No coffee maker.
Had the most selfish neighbours who played music all night. (Which also means the insulation between rooms was very poor)

Staff were great. But the facility is bad. No hair dryer in the rooms. Staff got one for me though very old and dirty. You can hear everything through the walls. And people were outside by their rooms loud till 12:30. Keys don’t work very well.
I love staying at the university inn hotel I always have a wonderful stay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Receptionist was very friendly. The room was very quiet, dark and cool. The location is great, we walked to campus in 10-15 minutes. We saw no bugs and would stay here again.
