Sites need to be renovated. The last 2 residence inn suites have been poorly maintained and desperately need updating…bathroom ventilation, ac units, limited parking & no security was in the parking areas. The design of the rooms is inefficient. The door stuck to the frame and was difficult to open.

Room was great, clean and had all the amenities we needed except body lotion. We had to leave for the hospital before breakfast. The front desk staff at check in, after 7PM, was not very friendly.

Hotel was definitely not worth the cost. Maybe the price was boosted higher because of the Chris Brown concert? Front desk lady ( don’t remember her name) was awesome.

I can’t eat but breakfast looked good and I’d have enjoyed taking a giant bite of sausage and a large swig of orange juice. What I didn’t like … when booking the room , I asked to be close to the elevator. Of course, I was the furthest away from the elevator one could possibly be. Go Figure.
