    Clean Rooms with new flooring

    Worn out appearance in the lobby, stairs, rugs, and overall feel. Poor landscaping and upkeep. The check-in and check-out were done virtually through a kiosk. Not sure that there was anyone present when we checked in. Did not feel like a 3 star hotel.

    1JimmyPosted on: 7-30-2023

    The air conditioner worked great.

    Room 105 was gross. The walls need scrubbed with bleach. The shower curtain rod needs replaced. It has more rust than chrome. There was black mold on the wall in between the toilet and tub.

    The cheap price

    I was told I purchased a king deluxe room but the bed in the room I was given was not a king size.

    Great location Indoor pool

    Ppl were living there long term

    8GaryPosted on: 9-14-2021

    The rooms are amazing, clean and new. One of the best hotel beds I've ever slept in

    no amenities, such as vending machine. The hotel is under construction which I totally understand, but can't get beverages in the evenings.

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 8-24-2021

    Clean. I appreciate the floors in the room not being carpet. Nice flooring, clean room, friendly staff. Renovated part looks good.

    No sign for the hotel, looks like it's under some renovation, I passed it a couple times. Only thing I have to complain about is a funky smell in the hallway. The carpet and walls are new and clean, but had a not new smell. Room did not smell.

    Location Price for the area was good if all you wanted was a place to sleep. Room wasn¿t bad

    Overall eye appeal was poor No sign identifying the hotel anywhere outside. I will comment it had been bought out by Ramada so they were in a transitional stage , some things remodeled and some showing age.

    Water did not get hot not even one time

    Nothing in the room worked

    10Verified guestPosted on: 7-11-2025

    They were able to wave the 100 dollar deposit for me and it really helped out because I didnt have it.

    1Verified guestPosted on: 4-22-2025

    Yes everything

    4BorkinPosted on: 2-17-2026

    The beds were comfortable, and it was close to the university.

    It was very eerie, no one was around, things in the room were falling apart and there was mold inside the bathroom.

    1BrianaPosted on: 2-16-2026

    Nothing was liked about this place very sketchy and you don’t have an elevator for disabled people if I could give this place a zero I would. No works on site and the place looked like I hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. The bed sheets were dirty so I left.

    3ReaganPosted on: 2-10-2026

    Just need more selection!! Most contenital breakfasts have bagels, muffins, etc. .

    Not enough staff!!

    8JohnathanPosted on: 2-10-2026

    Not enough choices! Staff only put it out once in 5 days

    NOT ENOUGH STAFF!! Couldn't get clean towels or toilet paper or anything because staff was always asleep or gone off hotel grounds!!

    3JohnathanPosted on: 2-10-2026

    More choices for breakfast Location was great

    Staff response to requests

    1DashawnPosted on: 2-1-2026
