Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We did not stay here. The property was run down and dirty looking. Outside, a number of people who appeared to be vagrants were standing around smoking. Inside more people were sitting around the lobby. It looked like a place for homeless and/or recovering addicts. Does not look at all as it appears on your site.

Horrible experience
When I got to the hotel the front desk had no record of me reserving a room. They were very rude about accommodating to me getting another room and at charge me an extra $10. When we got into the room we found out there was no hot water. Behind the bed was trash and most of the linens hadn't been changed. Very poor facility

Good Service
Our stay was very good. The TV in our room did not work and when we asked the desk clerk about it, he came immediately and said that one hasn't worked and they were waiting for repair. We were given another room and it was bigger and better!

There’s a lot of long term inhabitants. It was very noisy and definitely not the cleanest.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Simply awful. Stained sheets, inoperable doors, broken shower faucet, housekeeping didn’t make up the bed for 3 days, questionable folk hanging around the entrance 24/7. Clearly zero expenditures on maintenance/upkeep. Rude/apathetic staff topped off the experience. You get what you pay for; cheap in every sense of the word.

Weird experience
Very sketchy crowd always in parking lot, hair in shower, entire building smell like smoke, noisy, traffic constantly in hallways….however, the room was decent and bed comfy. It just felt weird like in a movie. The management, staff just very strange characters like American Horror

Handicap....Don't bother
Didn't accommodate for handicap, I wanted coffee when we checked out and was given a hard time when I ask for it. We needed a shower chair for handicap room but was told that they didn't have one or a roll in shower that the listing showed. Very bad attitude when it came to our needs.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The person at the front desk was pleasant and the bed was comfortable, but that’s the only positive we could find. The parking lot was in need of repair and very dimly lit. There was hair in the sink, in the bathtub. Sticky stains on the wall. No instructions for wifi or the TV. No breakfast in the morning. Only had one pot of coffee and there was no creamer. Have stayed in a lot of lower end hotels and this was one of the worst.
