I should have known better than choosing an inexpensive place to spend the night before my flight. My experience included a run down airport shuttle that I almost missed because there was only an 8.5x11 sign taped in the side of it, walking into a lobby with a pool of water from a roof leak, waiting for 15 min to be checked in because there was only one poor man working, finally getting to my room to find a roach, which I ended up catching and bringing down to the lobby because no one came up to get it. And then it was still sitting on the lobby desk when I came down in the morning. Next time I will pay the extra $20 for basic service and cleanliness.

Star Rating should be 1
I knew I’d made a terrible mistake when I got into the hotel transfer van. The driver smelled of BO. Upon arriving the entry was certainly not welcoming. Check in was fine. Carpeting in halls was old and smelled musty. Entered the room and thought I was going to be sick. The room smelled so bad, furniture very warn and smelly. The bathroom was outdated but ok. Until I found two long black hairs hanging from the shower curtain after I’d stepped in. TV was at least 20 years old and there was no signal in the morning. Breakfast was standard and managed well

Great staff. Friendly attitude of staff compensated for a poorly maintained hotel. Unfortunately, my Non-smoking room smelled very strong of smoke. All secure doors are not secure, you can come and go freely 24/7. Carpets are very dirty. Beds are comfortable and rooms are clean, just need new paint, carpet cleaning and maintenance.

Wouldn't stay there again.
3 day stay, had to change rooms after o e night. Room smelled of urine, air-conditioning was humid and smelled bad. There were ants on the end table near the bed. Second room was better but got no maid service. Breakfast was fair at best.

The entire stay the Wi-Fi service was disrupted. I’m in the middle of moving so I wanted to stay close to work and summer school for my son. Mike was a nice human although professionally he never had a way to resolve the Wi-Fi connection issue. Upon arrival he offered rooms that have cigarette smell and non working air conditioning. It took 3 times to view a room until we settled for the room we stayed in. At check out there was a guy inquiring about pet when I only booked this room because they allowed service pets at no charge or extra fees. Mike failed to deliver quality comfort and also had an excuse why things were down like the Wi-Fi and no signal television.
