We got to the property, check in was easy. Room looked clean at first, but as we walked in there was dirt & mud on the floor. I did not feel comfortable walking on the floor without shoes. Beds also looked clean but the pillows had black stuff on them. I had to use my shirt as a pillow case. Found 3 cockroaches crawling by the beds. Sink water was piping hot, could not use the sink long. As much as I wish I could say something good about staying here over the weekend. At least the staff was nice.

The staff were weird, like they have never seen females before. The locks on our door didn’t work. Put a bedside table on door. The blow dryer didn’t work, no chairs or trash cans in room. No door to separate the toilet and shower to the rest of the room. People knocked on our doors an hour into us being there but we didn’t answer. Overall this is the worst hotel I have stayed at and overall didn’t feel completely safe as a female.

No ice machine, no light bulbs in room, no reusable cups, no coffee maker. Refrigerator worked well. No trash can. Booked 3 nights stayed 1. Beds were nice, room fairly clean. Get what you pay for. Good for people working in town and going home on weekends maybe. Will not stay there again. Booked for 3 nights and stayed one night.

Staff is very welcoming and they treated us like family and especially with welcome gift was like marriott style welcome. I am a Hilton and bonvoy member and I am surprise that Non franchise independent hotel is so better in customer service this is something impressive and I hear this hotel is going to change to a independent boutique hotel because the owner is so creative and owns a decorstions business as well — front desk oluseyi and Bryan and housekeeping Mike and Violetta is awesome I stayed 4th time and will keep repeating and tell all my hospital customers

Rooms are clean . New flooring shines and welcomed me. Oh yeah currently the staff is giving special discount for loyal customers who keeps coming back and I saved 25$ ok food gifts that they have it to me and my kids as a welcome in goody bag that was very very touchy . Security in night is also so feel us secured . I heard bring blankets with you but I found 2 extra blankets on bed and it was so cozy and clean. SKYSHOP HAS good collection for morning breakfast — you have to purchase bit they were cheap and affordable price . Mexican restaurant tacos was walking distance
