Review on Expedia:Booking easy. Getting a refund through Expedia - absolutely horrible. Review of Property: Do not recommend. Photos and description on Expedia do not capture the pot smell throughout the whole property including inside. Pullout bed was dirty or had bedbugs. Front desk did not have enough bed linens when I requested them from front desk. Bed frame on one of the two beds has exposed metal bed frame which gouged my leg while walking by. Left the room after 20 min to cancel my stay. Nice front desk gentleman said he understood and that a refund would be granted but I would have to do it though Expedia in the morning (it was 10pm). I reached out to Expedia within a day or two for refund and two weeks later I am no closer to that refund. I recommend never booking this hotel or using Expedia.

Great stay-- 2 days

This hotel staff are above and beyond. The room was super clean. The staff were very professional and nice. The pool was awesome. Breakfast was great and clean. The cleaner came by to ask if we needed fresh towels. I would def recommend this hotel. I read mixed reviews before I stayed here about the neighborhood or hard beds. The beds were fine and the neighborhood was close to where we had to be so, it was great. I didnt see any issue with location anyhow.

Breakfast option was good for the type of class the hotel is rated for. The bed was comfortable and nice. Noise level was high due to upstairs guest was stumping around not thinking about the time of the night (2 am!) Informed the front desk staff and it got better. Overall it was good for one night stay

The property was in a bad part of town, it was dirty and run-down and the Uber driver told me that un-housed people live there for long periods of time. Not that I'm against un-housed people but it can degrade the reputation of a place to vacation!
