No cable throughout the building. Toilet bowl was making noise all night. Fire alarm went off at 3am. And breakfast was a choice of packets of Quaker oatmeal, 3 different cereals, 5 blueberry bagels, and yogurt. And let’s not forget the receptionist’s daughter walking around barefoot as if she was at home.

Susan

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Pros: Easy check-in, nice exterior appearance. Cons: Numerous maintenance and safety issues. The bathroom had broken floor tiles and a loose shower rod that caused water to spill. Critically, there was no smoke detector in the room, just hanging wires. The refrigerator was so loud it had to be unplugged to sleep, the TV had no channels, and the bathtub dripped continuously. To top it off, a loud argument outside my room went on from 3 to 4:30 am, and the front desk was unreachable. I would not recommend staying here due to the poor conditions and lack of staff response.
Shower curtain rod pulling out of the wall, so curtain would only cover the small area pictured.
Tried to show the drip, but I think the black mold around the fixtures is even more telling.

The front door to the building is hanging open, so it does not feel very secure or safe. When I walked by the lobby at midnight and again early in the morning, there was nobody there to view visitors. The room was okay. The bathroom floor was very sticky - I put towels down so I didn't have to walk on it.

towels were stained and looked like they have never been replaced... no turn down service for multiple night stay. Toilet lid would not stay up as it hit the countertop that is pulled away from the wall. Soiled towels were left in the hallway for multiple days. Would NOT recommend a stay here.
