5.8/10 (1,006 reviews)

Very basic, don’t expect much. The paint on the walls is peeling, we could smell the rug, there was a bit of mold in the bathroom and gnats coming out of the shower’s drain. The bed was old and after a couple of days gave us a back pain. Very noisy outside and area is not safe to be out alone at night.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (644 reviews)

We had a great time staying at the Grove! The area was phenomenal with a lot of great walking areas, neighborhoods, restaurants, and bars. The only thing that was inconvenient was that our water pressure in the shower was nonexistent. It was at a very slow drip, which made it hard to use.
