Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was not very clean. The bathroom had a poop stain on the seat and then there was a cockroach in the room. Then the sheets were dirty and the towels. We asked to get them replace and the room clean but it was still not good. Then there was no breakfast area as advertised. We bought some cleaning products and that helped with the room. It was okay after that except for the roach part.

Disliked: Staff & service
Room smelled like sewer and front desk was rude only wanted cash deposit, down graded to a one bed and was not compensated for it. To get upstairs there is no stroller or wheel chair access. Front desk refused to give us a two bed room downstairs for wheelchair and stroller access. I do Not recommend this place if you have kids.

It located in a sketchy area. We have seen people hanging out in the lot smoking and in the stairs ways. The lady in the front checking in people seems unfriendly and mad. We stay here for 1 night at the most just rest and be on our way. The beds and pillows seem new and comfortable. It has a mini fridge and microwave. Its ok for a late check in and leave early kinda of stay.
