One guy checked us in behind glass. Scary place. People loydering by the door just hanging for no reason cursing etc. We slept in our clothes. Basically this place as my niece called it "was in the hood". For $11 more we switched to a different area a little further than the hospital but very much worth the extra miles.

Great location if you’re attending any events at the expo center. The room wasn’t the cleanest but I went in thinking it was going to be much worse based on other reviews. No problem checking in/out. Saved a ton of money by staying here as there were many events going on and lots of other hotels had much higher rates and rooms sold out. Wasnt the worst place I’ve ever stayed.

Should be warned the area is not safe at all. I was a single female traveling and it was terrifying at times. Sketchy characters walking around, even other guests making inappropriate comments. Also looked like a few women of the hour staying in the hotel . Beds were busted , room was dirty . Very disappointed, the price I paid wasn’t that cheap. I chose it because it was the closest to a certain location.
