No issues checking in! The staff us helpful with sense if urgency! But the hotel itself is in a bad area and has poor conditions. The toilet doesn’t really work. The beds are stiff and the AC sounds like about to break down any minute the place definitely needs an update renovation.

Reviews & photos were inaccurate!

Check in was done virtually So it was not a good experience. I did not feel safe parking, walking to my room. As soon as I open the door to my room I got a whiff og bleach smell. We left the door open and turn on the air conditioner but it was warm air blowing. Also, the reatroom had cigarettes burns on the seat there were holes in the wall and we seen a cocaroach. I was so upset about the whole situation that i just dropped off my key and left after full 30 min of being there.

Horrible service from the hotel and from hotels.co

We checked in, found roaches crawling, blood stains on the sheets and there were sketchy people walking around and long term clients living there. We didn’t feel safe. Requested a refund at the front desk, they said we had to go through hotels.com. Called hotels.com, finally spoke to someone who told us it was too late to get a refund because it was now after 4pm. The hotel.com service agent, put me on hold and said he was going to talk to the front desk worker from the hotel, then came back on the phone to say sorry, we can’t refund your 3rooms your not staying in for the night. said they would give me a credit of $70 for my next stay using hotels.com. So I lost over $500. I went back to the front desk, spoke to Harry who stated hotels.com never called the front desk. This was a huge nightmare and money down the drain I wish I would’ve taken more photos, but I just needed to get out of there. Our Lyft guy picked us up and stated to be careful of bed bugs and the people around the hotel. Very sketchy

Hotel smelled like smokers even though we got non smoker. Bathroom toilet was broken from the top. The bedding had holes from cigaret smoke. The door in the bathroom would not close properly and was dirty. The smoke detector had plastic over it which was an obvious safety hazard. Room was old and seemed like no upkeep was done to keep the paint or room presentable. Also seems like a lot of people rent the rooms weekly or monthly just made it feel like it was worth the price point paid.

Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. There were no extra blankets in the room. The hairdryer only worked on low. I was unable to check in at 3:00PM as the Expedia reservation was not visable to the hotel.
