The staff was rude and the room was bad! It didn’t even have toilet paper! Who does that?
There were a few little things wrong
Shower soap ran out - pretty normal. used the hand soap
Mini fridge wasn't in good shape. Really needed defrosting. Defrosted it by mistake, mopped up the spilled water with towels.
I told the front desk man to organize the cords better for the mini fridge & microwave & tv by drilling holes in the back of the cabinet for a big improvement.
This is mine and my wife’s favorite spot. We like that it has rooms for pets and the conviene of being close to downtown. We love going to the Riverwalk as well as going to a boba spot close by.
The property is located next to a cemetery. When we entered the room, the air conditioning unit smelled bad and had mold. There were strong odors throughout the unit. The bathroom toilet was dirty and clogged. Overall, it was a very bad experience. I had to go to the front desk and cancel my reservation. I was charged for the first night, but the remaining nights were refunded, including the deposit.

Not what I expected… room was not what was promoted
Room was Clean, the shower looked a little dirty when i first got there but its nothing a little water sprayed in the shower couldnt fix the one thing i would say about the shower is the water goes out onto the bathroom floor, besides that hotel was nice and clean, would stay again!
Room was remarkably clean. Air conditioner worked well and the ceiling fan was nice. Desk clerk was awesome. Property was clean. Definitely will stay again.
I didn’t stay because I saw a man with a gun and other man came out the rooms and were walking around my car, I was scary and it wasn’t by the river walk
