I booked a smoking room, get there, no smoking rooms. On the reservation it says bring $10 cash, I got there and they tried to charge me $100 deposit. I showed them it said nothing about $100 deposit. He took $20. They had a parking lot, that they tried to charge me $15 to park. I left after a few hours without my $20 because I was so disappointed. I will never book here again.

The staff was nice, friendly and very responsive, However property was very dirty. Sheets had many stains, we ended up buying bed sheets, the floor was a rug and not even 10 mins of my sneakers being off when I looked at the bottom of my feet the socks were so black as if I have been walking on them allll day and I wasn't. The bathroom door had make up stains all over. and the floor had pieces of garbage everywhere. I wish the owners look at this review as an opportunity to take care and fix up the property.
