The property was good enough and simple for a short stay. The staff was helpful. The property is a little outdated and the cleanliness could be better.

Our room was not thoroughly cleaned prior to our arrival. Found trash under the bedside table and leftover food in the fridge. Being on the street side of the hotel meant that we heard the traffic and music from the convention center (across the street). No hair dryer or extra bedding in room. Beds were comfortable. Bring extension cord if you have electronics that need to charged. Lobby staff was great & helpful.

We booked a queen bed through Expedia, but upon arrival discovered it was actually a full. When we asked about it, the front desk said all of their beds are that size, which makes me think Expedia should update their listing to reflect reality. While I went into this knowing it’s a budget-friendly motel, the basics of cleanliness should never be skipped. Unfortunately, the sheets and pillowcases clearly hadn’t been properly washed—we found multiple hairs in the bed as if it had just been remade without laundering. Even more unsettling, I noticed a pile of used sheets and bedspreads sitting outside the laundry room all night, exposed to who knows what. Overall, I was extremely disappointed by the lack of cleanliness and accuracy in the booking. I will not be returning.

Bed and room is small. But TV is working this time

The bed is smaller than queen. The room is small too. But still efficient with bathroom that lower water pressure. The Tv I surprise still working consider last time tv channel didn’t work at all. So I appreciated for it.

This place is one of the more affordable places and you quickly find out why. If you need a place to stay a night or two, it’s good enough. It was clean enough and had everything you would need in a hotel. Two major areas of improvements I’d like to see are new windows that don’t allow sound to come in. Because of how affordable the place was, all types of folks come through here and they are loud at night. The windows showed their age. The second area of improvement would be the beds. Mine had a small piece of spring sticking out and it had made a hole in the bed. It scratched my leg, but I bent it back under the bed to make it safe to sleep on again. Mattresses can be cheap. Just swap all of them out. This place will do for short and affordable stays but keep in mind what I said.

The hotel staff never took out the trash around the property. Therefore, trash was piling up everywhere. When asked for more towels or washcloths, it seemed more of an issue than anything. You get what you get for the price but it does NOT look like the pictures.

Never again

Not so good; left early. Room had a toilet seat ready to fall off, towels for shower are really hand towels, no room service, impossible to change on line or over the phone being told "we are completely booked and unable to change room type when there is actually 4 cars in the parking lot the whole stay. Room 133 two doors down is used as a housekeepers dog kennel, trash cans were overflowing the entire stay. Late night arrival was put right over my room and they dragged furniture or dead bodies around until 2am only to start again at 6am. Courtyard is dead weeds and dirt. No ice machine or ice bucket if there were one. At least the AC unit worked!

Hotel from hell

Horrible!! When you book a room with two beds you expect at least a queen and not two single beds. The shower was horrible. Who puts a spout on a half circle dome facing the wall and a shower curtain to keep the water in?? Beds felt like your sleeping on the floor and the room was not even big enough for a family of 4 let alone not even for two people
