Older hotel no outlets to plug devices into. The available receptacles didn’t work. Burned out light bulbs in bed lamps. Bathroom wasn’t the cleanest. Beds were not comfortable. Room was next to stairwell ppl were loitering in the stairwell smoking pot and outside the door the stinch seeped into our room which was disgusting. The breakfast was very limited and not good. Would not stay there ever again. :(

The place looks good from outside but inside is pretty run down. No carpet in room, just a basic room for sleeping I guess. Door to side parking lot was always propped open with rocks with people constantly coming & going. Almost felt like a homeless shelter for women with lots of unsupervised kids. I wouldn't stay there again.

I was moved twice and did not want to be moved a third time. The rooms were very crappy. The bathroom doors did not close fully in both rooms. There were no electrical outlets convenient to use. I had to use a surge protector behind the dresser below TV. TV was outdated. The lamps did not work in 1st room. There was lots of mold to be hidden but open under both bathroom sinks. I actually woke up with a bit and realize it may have been a bed bug. The shower pressure was weak. The breakfast was very poor other than the waffles. I will not use this chain of hotels again. I was in town for a last minute basketball tournament and all other hotels were booked. I do not recommend unless very last option.

Budget hotel at best
We made a reservation for a king room with a sofa bed for 4 people. Front desk employees were friendly. Room was small, but sufficient size. I'm almost certain that our non-smoking room used to be a smoking room, because it definitely had a faint smell of cigarette smoke, and the entire hallway around our room had a strong cigarette odor. They didn't leave us any sheets, blankets or pillows for the sofa bed, and the sofa bed mattress was dirty with food crumbs. My husband went down to the front desk to ask for blankets. Around 40 minutes later, we called down since they hadn't arrived yet. When they did finally arrive, they brought us 2 sheets and that's it. The bathroom was pretty bad. I considered not using the shower because it was gross. The shower had mold and the shower head was all rusty. Housekeeping really needs to spend more time on the shower. In the morning, our bathroom smelled strongly of pot, so I guess our neighbors must've been enjoying their morning smoke. I'm really not sure how this place has decent reviews. It wasn't the worst, but it definitely fits into the budget hotel category. I would not recommend this hotel and will not stay here again.
