There’s no denying the property and area it’s located in are scuzzy. The room I stayed in was ok, run down but comfortable enough for the quick overnight I spent there. The tv couldn’t be turned off so I ended up unplugging it. The fire alarm was set off at 4 AM by someone microwaving a hot pocket for 20 minutes. So… not ideal.

Poor location but comfortable bed.

The hotel is in a sketchy location, a number of inebriated folks wondering in the vicinity. Libby is poorly lit. The room was dingy but the bed was surprisingly comfortable and the shower was clean and the water hot.

The building is old the ac wouldn’t cool the room the window wouldn’t close tight. The streets sounded like Indianapolis 500. Lots of homeless people around and other people. No way in hell will I ever stay there again.

I did not feel safe at all. There were drug addicts surrounding the building when I arrived and they were allowed to freely come and go throughout the hotel. The room safety lock would not latch. The tv remote was not programmed. The air conditioned did not work. The advertised air transfer shuttle was non-existent. There is no elevator. The ceiling fan was coming out of the ceiling and unusable. There was no ice machines. It felt like a drug rehab building and definitely not recommended for a single female traveling alone.

This property is hideous. Dirty, shoes stick to the floor. Cleaning equipment & trash in hallways. Filthy bathroom. Bad area of town. From first floor room with broken window in bathroom and homeless people not 10 yards away. Pot smell all over the place.

Its a great value

So on Hotels.com it says that they had an airport transfer from the airport. It’s one of the reasons I went with this hotel. But when I landed for my flight they said that was no longer available and that I would need to get a taxi. That was annoying, and should probably be updated. The lady was also eating while they were on the phone with me so I couldn’t catch all of what they were saying. The room was great considering the price. You can tell the room has been through a lot, but they really cared about how clean it was. They had a microwave, a nice size fridge, a bathtub, a TV, a couch with a pullout bed, and it was VERY spacious room. It was just me staying, but if you need have a group this is a good place to consider. Overall the stay was good. Easy check in, easy checkout. I’ll definitely keep these guys in my top 5 list.

Pretty scary to be honest… Full of homeless people that are drunk all night and shouting. Somebody kept knocking on my hotel room door throughout the night. The bed sheets had cigarette burns on. It was quite an experience. The night receptionist was friendly, he obviously has to deal with so many in-ruly people.
