This property is in a very unsafe location with parking in an unlit alley. The property itself is very rundown and dirty with roaches and broken toliet seats. We declined to stay despite prepaying and the manager said he would refund half of our stay but did not (from the receipt, it looks like he paid himself the refund personally).

Don't arrive in the dark, room numbers cannot be seen unless you walk up to the door. It was like black numbers on Navy blue. Pet friendly-Pet stays free. It's not I was charged $50 "deposit" for my chihuahua. The accessible outlet near the desk looked kicked in. The Lamp outlets and USB ports were broken and couldn't charge from there. The working outlet was far from a table or the bed. Website said breakfast was offered --it was not. It did have a working refrigerator and freezer for my medications which was appreciated. Did not test other appliances. The toilet did not like to flush with a much of the top button. Had to Push the button all the way into the tank to get it to work. No decent outdoor lighting and the outside stairs by the empty planters were crumbling. As for ammenities there were 4 hair conditioners, two washcloths a hand towel and another towel. The shower did not work properly. Seemed every other room was derelict as I was searching for my room.

This was the absolute worst experience ever. I booked two rooms, one wheelchair accessible for my grandmother. Upon arrival I was notified that they don’t have any rooms to accommodate. It took 30 minutes to get my grandmother up to her room using stairs. In our rooms things were unavailable and broken , amenities and other things needed in the room weren’t in there. Used items still in the rooms. When asking for assistance my needs weren’t met. Front desk was no help and no house keeping available.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Service was terrible. I was not offered any breakfast. The lobby was full of trash from shipping packages. The room was horrendous. Beds unmade. Sheets dirty with what appeared to be blood stains. Sink clogged and drains slow. Toilet flushes slow. The heat worked, but I couldn't sleep because the unit had a loud pitch scream. Not to mention the several pests I had to kill and shake out of my luggage in the morning. I couldn't stay there so I left in the middle of the night and no one was available after midnight to check me out. I really would like someone to contact me for a refund and I am concerned that I won't get my incidental charge back on my card. Please help!

although my room was recently renovated, the tub had it's enamel peeling off, After running the water in the tub and sink for ten minutes, I was unable to get warm or hot water. When I arrived to check in, there was no one at the desk or in any of the offices.. Someone showed up after 10 or more minute wait. On the website it stated that breakfrast was offered - there was nothing, not even coffee! Also offered was a fitness center, nothing was available. I feel that I should receive a partial/full refund, because of the false advertising and the fact that I could not even take a shower!!!!!!!!!

The property is in flux as the rooms are modified into spacious suites. Should be great when complete, but the pool, the breakfast and even the bulbs in some room lamps were missing, as was the battery to one of the TV's. VERY nice desk personnel, however, and a great rate for our clean, large room in the meantime.
