Hotel is being renovated. Access doors were missing handles or were locked. Our room was comfortable but lacking in quality controls. Plaster mud was still in the tub. Construction trash in the parking lots.

The staff and the breakfast were great. The rooms were fine for us, but we don't have super high standards we just need a place to sleep and shower in between volleyball game days. They are definitely trying to improve things, unfortunately that means half of the place is torn up right now. The property is back at the end of a dead end in what looks like it could be a sketchy neighborhood however security hangs out in a vehicle in the parking lot all night so that does make one feel better. All in all not bad, although a little steeply priced in my opinion for what it is.

Where do I begin? The place is not “remodeled” it’s in a very unsafe scary area. There is trash and broken items all over the outdoor and the parking area. The outdoor entrances weren’t locking so anyone could just walk in. There was a disgusting stained mattress and broken tiles to meet us as we walked in the door. A scary man was just walking around the property going in the doors. The parking lot was littered with broken glass and trash. I thought our tires were going to go flat due to the building supplies all over. The room was repainted and had new furniture, but seemed very sketchy and cheaply done. There were odd wiring and plumbing fixtures that seemed to be gross and dangerous.

The staff was very nice and attentive, but the room was not cleaned thoroughly before we checked in. There was some sort of brown gunk around the bathroom countertop.

Thankfully the bed was clean but that was the only thing. There was a pair of socks left from previous guests. The counters were sticky. The floor was dirty. The only reason we didn’t leave was it was late and we had to get the kid to sleep before her competition.

The room was fine. Didnt seem dirty. The bed was extreme noisy. The hotel was difficult to maneuver. Be careful with location, i had no idea this hotel was so secluded. Lots of homless and drug addics coming in and out of the side doors..
