Burnouts in the parking lot

My stay was horrible I didn’t get any sleep, there was people outside doing burnouts and the people next door kept going in and out. There’s was also people drinking outside and just being loud. Would never stay here again.

It was better than I expected. Clean room with many amenities. The only thing I can complain about is the low profile customers. Someone was banging on the next door at 3 in the morning.

Porperty looks run down. You are required to leave a $100 deposit ($200 if with cash). No remote to control A/C, staff was not very helpflul in resolving the A/C problem. Never came back with a remote for the A/C. Hotel wqs noisy. Thge only think I liked was the area where the hotel is located.

Good for the Price

Its a good place for the cost. Some sketchy people but for that area its normal. The room was nice. Decent size fridge. The air worked well. Nothing I could really care about. You get what you pay for really. I really thought the room looked super nice though.
