Unfavorable service but good location
The free breakfast was only cold cereal of one kind- frosted flakes and watered down coffee was offered at a cooled temperature. There was no water during the night as if it was cut off intentionally. There was mostly quiet guests and visitors which was enjoyable.

Good price. Good stay.
Well the phone in our room was broken so we couldn't get in touch with the front desk about the WiFi but over all it was great. I've stated at other hotels for this price that were horrible. We will be back soon

Good hotel but not safe area
The hotel was fine for the purpose. The staff was great but the area is not safe. My daughters car tag was stolen during the stay. The clerk offered to look at the security tapes to help but then did not do it. If you are looking for cheap stay with good service, you will get that here. But beware of crime in the area.

Pleasantly Surprised
We were looking for a cheap place for our group to stay, but not at one of the dumps at the airport. We were pleasantly surprised. The hotel is being remodeled. It was clean, mostly quite and the beds were very comfortable. After our experience over the last 2 years, this was like staying in a 5 star resort.

It was okay.
I needed a cheap place to crash for the weekend. There are no irons or microwaves and that was the biggest flaw for me. There was a fridge but it was kinda useless not paired with a microwave. The building needs renovation and updated. Overall I I give it 2 stars.

Out right DRITY
The stay was horrible due to the roaches and the staff was room even more after we informed them that there were roaches in the room. They asked "well why you staying?" We stayed because we were from out of town with a late arrival. We endure the stay and checked out first time that morning. I really feel like i should be refunded my money from the first night...no one should have to pay to stay there.

Disappointed but I guess u get what u pay for
Clogged toilet, no towels. Asked for plunger, they didn't have one; asked for towels, none ready in laundry; most of the outlets didn't work; location was difficult to get in and out of due to high traffic volume at entrance. Next time I will pay more

Not a good experience
Overall we were uncomfortable. Very busy neighborhood and not a good one. Had roaches, felt like we slept on plywood. You had to hold the door handle and out your key in at the same time or it wouldn't open. People up all hours of the night slamming doors.

Worst Experience Ever
I didn't stay at the hotel at all. When I checked in I didn't feel welcomed at all the receptionist who checked me in was very rude. The floor was wet walking in and I almost fell and there was no wet floor sign up at all. I had a long day and just needed a room to stay in and as I checked in the owner of the hotel was being very rude to other customers. When i finally got to my room which took about 20 minutes to check in none of the lights or heat worked in the room at all. So I immediately went back down to let them know. The owner asked if I was there for ten minutes and I advised her and her husband no. So told me she couldn't refund me back my money because I waited too late. She gave me back my key again and explained to her that I didn't want to stay there at all so she did i needed to figure something out. After calling the agency I booked them through which took 20 additional minutes I had to wait 48 hours to get my money back. I will NEVER go back or refer anyone to this hotel because it was the worst experience ever. The owners were more focused on not giving back my money, how long was I there, if I connected to the WiFi, and if I messed up the beds or touched anything Instead of their customer.

Not great, even for a budget hotel
I would have stayed elsewhere if I had a choice, but ended up here because all the proper airport hotels were sold out. No shuttle from the airport: between $20-30 for a cab. Facilities not great, e.g. carpet near bathroom was soaking wet (either from rain or plumbing problems, I don't know). No heavy blanket provided, so the only possibility to stay warm was to turn on the very noisy heater. Breakfast was provided, but just cold cereal and plastic-wrapped danishes.

Crash for a night...access great!
I won't belittle the establishment. But I was told on a particular reservation line that check out was at 12noon...not true. 11am. Overall, don't expect a continental breakfast. If you're looking for somewhere to lay your head for a night or two that's all you should expect. The plus side is it has access to the main interstate. There's food and shopping all around. The floors were a bit dirty pretzels left crumbled on the floor. I was too tired to complain about it. After a night out with family all I wanted to do was sleep and go back home. Not all that great but not all that bad

dissapointing Hotel
This Hotel is pretty run down, the rooms are good,but the surrounding is old, stairs look nasty,scary entrance, everything behind thick glass and door to lobby locked from 7p to 7a... Did not have breakfast and had to ask for coffee, thermos was empty at 8 am... lobby and registration very smelly (indian spices).Shower did not get warm,receptionist friendly, but not very helpful.They have a hard time speaking english,f.e.kept asking for last name but really ment first name. Could not describe where ice machine is, kept saying: in coke machine and really ment next to coke machine... not to recommend, had a LOT better stays for the price I paid in other hotels. Everywhere signs what you are NOT allowed to do....

Uncomfortable Stay
Water leaking from toilet, nasty. Strange questions asked by management, about my number of guests, employment, and how I paid for my room, and how much? Very awkward and somewhat insulting. A proper greeting, smile, and appreciation for my business would have been appropriate.

Courtesy and respect goes a long way
The first problem is when you go to the check in desk, there is no one present,you have to talk to someone on a phone that actually does not speak clear and proficient English!!! To top it off, there is a bullet proof glass to greet you and the person you talk to on the phone is very rude,does not try to understand your situation nor can he explain it in clear language what the check in rules are..Even when he comes to the window at 2;00 p.m. for check in, not before, he is still rude and short tempered...I will never spend my money nor recommend this hotel to anyone..The hotel itself is ok or the price, but the customer service is terrible!!!! In all my travel experiences, I have never seen such terrible customer service, it was almost as if it was a bother to deal with me and my business..

not the worse
The night staff was very friendly and helpful. The door to the room didn't close unless you slammed it extremely hard. There was only one light in the room that worked. The ice machine didn't work and I was told there was no other way to get ice. When I checked out the girl took the room key and walked away without saying a word I rang the service bell and an older woman came out, when I asked her about a check out receipt she told me I would have to wait 15 minutes and she walked away. I don't think I would stay here again.

Horrible experience
The hotel is next to a cemetery. Could not connect to WiFi. There were suspicious guests in the hotel. If the hotel clerk sits behind a wall to wall safety glass, it shows you how safe the hotel is.
