Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
the room had a smell of mold, there was blood on the door and mattress, it felt very sketchy but the lady in the front was extremely friendly and accommodating! very apologetic and understanding even though i ended up checking out after an hour.
Any place
You have to check in at the window at 730pm is not a safe place. Even during the day. Being told it’s unsafe is a joke. Where would I run to if anyone tryed to rob us.
Any property that checks you in through a jail small window is not safe staying in. First night I was cold with my kids standing outside looking around who may have worked around the corner. Agent telling me it’s unsafe to open the lobby or not opening the lobby even during the day in my 5 days of staying there is a major issue. Imagine if someone tryed something and the doors are locked! Where would I run for help ?

Worst property ever never book here they canceled my hotel threatened to take my money and left me stranded in la after working 15 hours at a concert driving from Vegas on a fully booked night I had Expedia contact property for a late check in then at 10:18 at night they canceled my hotel never never stay here they are extremely unprofessional and a unsafe place to stay or book with u may be left with no room
The remote wasn’t working so I walked downstairs to the receptionist . All that was done was that he restarted the remote. After walking back upstairs, I still was having issues with the remote and tv. Shortly after I noticed a leak from the mini fridge. Had to put down a towel to keep it from leaking more. Also to top it off The AC wasn’t functioning properly either, it was throwing air as if it were a fan. Stayed because we didn’t have other options but definitely don’t recommend coming here.
Fire alarm would not stop beeping. Couldn’t sleep. Battery was dying. Front desk lady RIBA, said nothing could be done until next day in the AM. She then suggested I work on the fire alarm and try to remove it myself. Just unbelievable! Horrible stay.
