I was so disappointed upon entering my room. Immediate disgust. The room was filthy and felt neglected as if no one had deep cleaned it in months. The mini fridge didn’t even work. I had to take the loss of my $$$ and book at a better taken care of hotel and I did NOT regret it at all. The pictures on the website aren’t even current so pretty much a scam in a way as well. DO NOT BOOK HERE. ESPECIALLY if you have little ones.

Staff was amazing. No complaints with the people I encountered in the front office. The hotel though was less than desirable. The room was poorly lit. Floor was filthy and walls were yellow. Extremely dated and dirty. Bath room was old and the room smelled moldy and was very humid. Bunk beds were rickety and overall felt dirty. The elevator was sketchy as it would randomly open, stop and wrong floors and the door was not opening. This place really should be torn down and replaced, not sure a remodel would be helpful. Again, not the staff they were great, just the hotel was not good.

Please avoid this hotel at all costs especially if you have kids. We chose this hotel since it had the option for bunk beds. However, upon arriving we were provided with a room that had a very strong smell of cigarettes. I informed the general manager (middle aged man), I can’t recall his name. He agreed to provide an alternative room, but this room also smelled but not like cigarettes it instead smelled like moisture and mildew. We asked if the windows could be opened to help with the smell and the motel engineer came up to open the windows. The engineer acknowledged the bad smell and encouraged us to get an alternate room. I felt bad asking for an additional room, but went ahead and asked for it since it was not good for my kids to be inhaling all the mildew smell. The third room did not smell as bad but the hallways where the room was located was full of dirty linens and it appeared as if the next room over had a motel guest with a hoarding issue; I’m not sure if this motel also contracts as a homeless shelter. After seeing all the options provided I asked if it was possible to obtain a refund since I did not feel comfortable staying here with my kids. The general manager agreed to offer a refund, but once the refund was provided his hospitality changed. His affect and mood changed from pleasant to condescending/angry. He asked us to leave immediately and said he did not owe us anything. I was happy to fulfill his request, please don’t stay here if you have kids trust me!

I would not stay here again. The room was very dingy and not well maintained. We were on the third floor, and the staircase was not lit at night, which felt unsafe and posed a fall hazard. The shower was broken and constantly dripping, and the room smelled strongly of cleaning chemicals. Despite that, there were toenail clippings on the carpet and chair, and hair left in the sink and bathtub. Overall, the room looked and felt unclean, and I felt uncomfortable the entire stay. The only positive aspect of this property was the location—it was within 10 minutes of everything. Unfortunately, that alone would not be enough for me to return.

The first room we were in had water coming up through the floor and I woke up with big puddles in the room. They were quick to get us a new room which was good but after the first day that room smelled like wet mildew the rest of the week. Our room was only cleaned 1 time out of 7 days that we stayed there. There was no continental breakfast, free parking or anything exercise room, despite advertising that they had all three. There is a $15 charge for daily parking despite the fact they have no cameras on their lot and no security on site that would justify the charge. And you can park for free on the street right in front of the hotel. Also the hot tub wasn’t working while we were there either. The elevator was super scary to use but we were on the 3rd floor so we had to use it. The inspection certificate for the elevator was expired by 3 months! DO NOT STAY HERE! The little extra$ for the hotels that are close by is worth the difference in cost for what you would get. This hotel was the worst part of a good vacation.
