Ok not sure if aware but for a non smoking rooms there was still the smell of marijuana first I thought it was a lady outside and the A/C but know there’s fans in the bathroom ! Which means they were blowing it up in the fan in the bathroom which doesn’t make me a detective but just annoyed customer!

This place is just OK. Was able to sleep and shower and go on about our day. Had trouble with the TV. Phone didn't work so had to go downstairs for help. Gave me some tips to fix it on my own. No breakfast. Good location close to I75, shopping and restaurants.

The room had visible mold in multiple Places and smelled like mildew. The exterior of the hotel had a huge crack in it, like someone had hit it with their car. The staff were friendly, but check in took a very long time.
