Im unsure why smoking rooms are significantly more expensive when the rooms are kept in the condition they're in. Tiles in the tub looked like they were falling off, there was no stopper for the tub, no batteries for the remote, the bottoms of some of the lights look like they are about to fall off. The bedside table had no knob on the drawer, and when I did get it open, the inside was stripped and filled with graffiti. And the dresser was completely unusable as the drawer had been ripped out as well as one of the doors. Was able to peek inside one of the unoccupied cheaper rooms, and it was much cleaner. Do not pay for a smoking room, because they are charging you extra to sleep in a dump.

The area felt really shady and dirty to walk our dog. The room was decent but all fixtures had rust. The bed was the most terrible we have ever had. It felt like sleeping on a box of springs. Noisy, hurting the back and like jumpy.

I hope this helps :) 8/10 good rating.

From the outside it may feel a bit deceptive, but once I stepped into my room I was truly surprised on how maintained and clean the place was, I had good customer service as well! For my first time ever experience, I was truly over all happy to see that looks don’t do it justice, be aware you’re getting what you pay for so that’s why I feel like I have to say that is was aware and to my surprise I was met with a pretty chill environment!
