Breakfast option was good for the type of class the hotel is rated for. The bed was comfortable and nice. Noise level was high due to upstairs guest was stumping around not thinking about the time of the night (2 am!) Informed the front desk staff and it got better. Overall it was good for one night stay

The property was in a bad part of town, it was dirty and run-down and the Uber driver told me that un-housed people live there for long periods of time. Not that I'm against un-housed people but it can degrade the reputation of a place to vacation!

Hallway smelled of marijuana. Dog was barking so much that we had to change rooms. Very loud in hallway.

I liked the pool but earlier opening hour would have been appreciated. Some items were in disrepair such as window frames and torn wallpaper above curtains-and stained window shades-3rd floor.

The property is very convenient to campus and a great value. However, surrounding the property are warehouses and the roads are in bad condition and you see some “loitering” types of people hanging out at the motel just next door. Be very aware of who is in the parking lot before you get out of your car to walk in. That said, there were a bunch of families with kids and nobody staying at this property seemed shady or scary.

Very unhappy

We were able to check in early which was great how ever we left and when coming back there was a customer complaining of her things being taken that she left in the room and then we left and came back again starting about 9 pm you could hear people upstairs running and jumping I did then call the front desk and make a complaint he said he would look into it about 10 mins later I did call again he stated that no one was in the hall I did tell him I heard it again and could while on the phone with him he stated that he would again check into it again 10 mins later it was the same thing I did then walk to the front desk and make a complaint to him and told him that I would go up there due to my children could not sleep due to the noise he said no he would take care of it the house did not stop until about 12:30 am it was ridiculous and he did say we could check out early and not stay the next day that I had already paid for. Our pull out bed had a blood stain on it which was gross. The next morning when I went to check out this time there was 3 employees up there and one of them tried to tell me he was there all night and never talked to me and I did not make any complaints I did then inform him that he was not the one I talked to the one I talked to was a younger short male with kaki pants on with a black shirt he then changed his tone and stated that he came later in the night and did not hear ang noises up stairs. I found it very rude and disrespectful

Easy to find right off the highway, room was clean and comfortable, fine for a one-night stay. Room was very dark, even with curtains fully open. Need higher wattage light bulbs.
