Overall, our experience wasn’t what we expected. The room wasn’t in the best conditions, there were cleanliness and engineering issues present; the day staff was ok but the overnight agents weren’t helpful at all. The only good part was the location.

I wanted to give a poor rating because Saturday and Sunday they put me on a floor where the locks on the doors needed repair. The lock on my door was very very poor and not safe. I felt like it was because I’m a black person therefore I was given this room. When I paid to stay another day the gentleman at the desk Sunday morning was very polite he offered me another room and explained to me the locks were in need of repair. He brought the subject up to me about the locks. I believe that was very kind, professional and caring for him to offer me another room and explained why without me having to ask.
