Remember you are not paying top dollar so don't expect all the luxuries. Good hotel for the price.

The room is nothing like the pictures. Instead of clean laminate flooring I have a room with stinky carpet and the room reeks of cigarette smoke. Not at all as advertised.

We were greeted by a very nice escort outside. The front desk lady with silver hair was quite rude and raised our price because we had more people than she was expecting, though we had booked the room for 5. The room was disgusting and there were cockroaches in the sink. There was free entertainment though from the argument upstairs between a man and his partner.

Horrible stay
This hotel is run down big time. It smelled really bad threw the whole place. Windows on the 2nd floor were all open in the hallway some without screens. We had a man come up to us in the hallway asking for money. We of course said no then went down to the front desk and he was down there too and told the front desk he was asking for money upstairs and asked if he was staying there and they said no he isn’t. So they are allowing homeless people wonder the hallways bugging paying guests? Outside several sketchy people hanging around the parking lot. Will never stay here again. And only reason I did last night was because all other hotels around were booked and we were 2 hours from home. As far as the room it was ok. Bathroom you can barely turn around in so small. Highly disappointment. Website shows a completely different location I believe. Definitely not this run down sketchy place.

Horrible Experience
i booked two rooms for a night. the rooms were horrible, and when i found a crack pipe between the towels in the bath room i asked for a refund and i would find another place to stay. they refused to give me a refund and after 10days they finally told me i had to contact hotels.com, now hotels.com is refusing a refund also. Rooms stunk of smoke, a dozen burn holes on bed spreads, witnessed drug usage in the parking lot, as i said, crack pipe in bathroom, they lied as they told hotels.com i refused another room, i was NEVER offered another room and would not have taken it anyway. This place is a crap hole.

The desk people were very friendly and helpful. I was able to check in early. However, it appears that there are many long term residents and they gather near the side entrances. If your room is on the first floor by the side entrance, expect a LOT of noise from people coming & going. Also, there was a group (6-8) hanging out in the parking lot, drinking, etc...in the evening. Doesn't make guests feel safe/comfortable.

WARNING!!!!!!Read all the Reviews Before you Book
Trash! Wish I read all the reviews before I booked ! Definitely a hotel that has deceptive advertising and is the equivalent of a raunchy motel.

Near lots of dining, generally pretty chill. Building kind of smells like cigarettes and when other guests open/close doors it echos and sounds like someone is opening YOUR door. Staff is nice and rooms themselves are nice. Not a bad place to stay on a budget.

Please do not stay here if you can help it
Was not happy with my stay. I paid for the room on Expedia and still was charged for the room when i got there. I also paid a $50 deposit that i never got back. This hotel is a last option. Check out was at 11am and they reminded me of that every hour until 11am starting at 9am. Sheets and bathroom was awful. Hair and dirt was still on the bed.

Just gross
Not very clean rooms... hallways, anything. Said free breakfast on here and in the room. It was coffee, she said they haven't had breakfast for a long time. If i wouldn't have prepaid, I wouldn't of stayed. Asked the guy working about the cleanliness and if room could get cleaned. He said, "You get what you paid for." Not sure how I feel about that. Now I have to stay again on the way back home because i was dumb and prepaid again. Mirror had toothpaste and soap on in, hair all over the shower, open/used soap bar near the sink, not sure when the room was last dusted or vacuumed, windows filthy.
