Its was a good clean property, but not enough parking spaces. I had to park far in the red roof inn and walk over. The building needs more parking spaces, other than that great stay.

Extremely overpriced for the hotel. Very shady part of town, did not feel comfortable parking at night. Had to park in adjoining hotel spots where there was undercover police dealing with something. Dark and Dingy hotel for sure. Glad I was there for a short amount of time.

The hotel does not have USB cell charging socket. You need to have an adaptor. It would be nice to upgrade this convenience, since everyone takes a phone. On the hand, the stuff is very nice helped me charge my phone with her personal charger

The hotel was clean and well equipped. My family stayed in a one bedroom unit with a small kitchen. The extra space and kitchen made a huge difference in comfort and usability. The check in staff were super friendly and I would definitely recommend this hotel.
