It was okay.

There was a lot of noise during the evening coming from the outdoor seating near the lobby. People talking and laughing all night long. Breakfast was limited and we were told on a couple of the days that they completely ran out of some items, leaving only bread w/o butter and coffee. We had difficulties with our room keys and one never worked at all. The floors in the room were pretty dirty and there were a lot of chips and cracks in the furniture and shower. The room was always made up nice and supplies replenished when we would return at night. The staff was unprofessional and unhelpful. Often spoke down and fought with guests, super unwilling to be helpful, unfortunately. The room served its purpose as just some place for us to store our luggage and rest while we explore the city, though it would’ve been nice to know we were coming back to a comfortable and quiet space to get good rest.

Multiple people tried getting into our room when my wife and daughter were there alone while I was unloading the car between the hours of 9:30-11 pm. A man was screaming the morning we left and arguing with the front desk while I was holding my daughter. They couldn’t find our reservation for 20 minutes while our daughter was exhausted from traveling all day and fussy. Alarm was going off the entire night in one of the rooms near us and got hardly any sleep. Front desk was not unfriendly but the overall stay was very unsafe and unpleasant.

When we arrived we didn’t have a room. This was after calling earlier in the day to see if we could check in and being told we couldn’t until 4:00! Flew to the city so we were a bit stuck. Ended up staying in an “ out of service room.” Tried talking to Expedia first. After chatting for a while my conversation online was dropped. Then called, talked to two people. The first person escalated the issue to the second. After explaining my situation to the second person and that I needed three spots to sleep (three beds OR two beds and a pull out couch) she comes back with a single king room. We were tired after traveling and a long day and I had been working on this issue for two hours, I just gave up and took the out of service room. I got an email noting my situation was not resolved, explained all this in my response and have heard nothing back.

Lobby furniture dirty, stained, smelled like weed and cigarettes, room was extremely dirty, roaches by the sink in the room and room smelled like weed and cigarettes. Should be advertised as a motel. Bedding had stains and looked really run down.

I would never stay here it felt unsafe and in a bad part of town. The property from the outside doesn’t look too bad but once you get inside it looks like a very cheap motel.

Overall I can’t say the stay was subpar but our beds were missing bed skirts and housekeeping told me to call the front desk manager about it (I didn’t). Also, there were visible stains on the floor and mini fridge. I didn’t get my coffee area restocked the second day, either. My keys stopped working on day two and I had to get new ones.

Bad breakfast

Breakfast was very disappointing. No variety. My husband took some scrambled eggs and the hostess told him he should save some for others. He had 2 spoonfuls only and the eggs were horrible. There wasn’t even sugar for coffee.
