You get what you pay for. Very inexpensive rates but missing amenities. Room had 2 bath towels but no hand towels or face cloths. Furniture was broken or damaged, bed spread had holes. Pet friendly, but not necessarily comfortable.

Checked in at the front desk, got my key and headed to my room. The entire place stank strongly of smoke. When I got in the room, the bedsheets were full of holes and stains and the walls were also very dirty in several locations. The TV was also loudly playing a French channel and the remote wouldn’t work to change the channel, reduce the volume, or turn the TV off. It also had no physical buttons to change anything so the only available option was to unplug it. This is one of the most rundown and unsafe looking hotels that I’ve ever seen. The parking lot was very small and sloped, and there was a truck parked with flat tires that appeared filled with garbage. The hotel reception specifically suggested that I park where my vehicle could be seen from the front desk or it was highly likely that someone would attempt to break into it. I immediately asked to refund my stay and to check out. The receptionist asked to see my room and apologized blaming the state of the room on “the new cleaner”, she did refund me though after the walk through without argument.

A Great Value Stay

It's not the Ritz Carlton however it doesn't mean it's not a good place to stay. Am aged property but they are not trying to be something they are not. The staff is friendly, helpful and just very nice to deal with. We will stay again for sure. Thank you!

The front desk staff were very accommodating and kind. Because this hotel is in the hood, it made us feel slightly unsafe. The bed sheets also were suspect in that they had hair and blood on the one bed.
