    • Rude front desk, old unit, noisy bed and not comfortable at all and pricey. We had to leave after three hours. Not a safe area as well and the worst thing that wall are thin to the point people hear everything in the next room even when you talk low.
    • Helpful staff Clean rooms Quiet
    • Left my smart phone. Came back, 3 hours later. And they had it for me. I go there every year. And will definitely go back.

    Cons -

    • NA
    • dirty smelly room like urine! check in women with attitude when askedfor double beds. asked for rollaway and she wouldn't admit they had them when I kept asking.Housekeeping said they had them so went back to front desk and she said that will be more $
    • The person at the desk when we checked in at 10pm was not friendly. He left me standing there with his back turned for almost 5 minutes before acknowledging me, even though he knew I was there.

    The bathroom could have been cleaned better. There were yellow spots of a substance on the tub. The floors looked as if they had not been swept. There was no parking and there was bugs in the bed. It was a terrible experience

    Close to where I needed to be. Inexpensive. Had breakfast and wi-fi.

    The person at the desk when we checked in at 10pm was not friendly. He left me standing there with his back turned for almost 5 minutes before acknowledging me, even though he knew I was there.

    The room was clean and didn't smell of cigarette smoke.

    Location not the best, about average for a 2star hotel. Looks like one room had boarded up windows. Not sure what that was about. Walls are thin, could hear the neighbors watching TV all night long.

    Odor and the furniture looked like it was found on the streets very beat up and the shower was very narrow. Would not recommend !

    5Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 10-19-2015

    Shower enclosure made taking a shower very awkward. The enclosure has a bump out seat almost that is basically right at your knees and cuts down the available space

    1Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-9-2015

    The staff was trying there best Please me by giving me three different rooms. Until found one that was halfway decent

    It's was old stinky.... some room was renovated halfway finish ...: just a complete mess

    3Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-20-2015

    The hotel needs updating. they are working on that. The first room I was in was one of those that was recently updated but the tv didn't have any volume on many channels.I complained and was moved to an old room that smelled like it was once a smoking

    When I booked this hotel I was told it had a pool but when we went to the front desk I was told it wasnt there anymore. And the rooms smelled moldy and when I would walk outside at night there was always drunks barking at me. Not a place 4 families

    Nothing really

    small bed, lady at front desk was not very friendly, noisy

    2Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 3-17-2015

    Bathroom was really big

    Unprofessional staff. Sign on snack machine said "Don't even think about it!", signs at breakfast said that no food could be taken back to room. When I asked for help, I was told to "call back in the morning!" Why couldn't that person just help?
