Lots of noise, people screaming in rooms. People hanging out in the lobby. Smell of dope was prevalent. Doesn't seem to be a very safe and secure hotel. Not recommended

Other guests screaming through night, fighting. Smell of dope was prevalent. People hanging out in the lobby. Some staff were seedy and seemed bothered to have to check me in. Some to l towels had stains on them. Seemed like a spot that housed people that had addiction issues. Not a safe spot

The room was generally clean, although I did notice a few hairs on the bedsheet. During my two-night stay, I had to switch rooms twice—first because the ceiling started leaking, and then because the door lock in the second room wasn’t working. Additionally, the elevator was out of service when I checked in. That said, the staff was very friendly and responsive. They helped me quickly and resolved each issue within minutes, which I really appreciated.

Smell of marijuana overwhelmed the entire hotel. Rooms were very dirty. Not to welcoming at the front desk. Tub and sink were clogged and back up when you run the taps and finally there was hairs all over the beds.

Booked a 1-Bed room for 11 nights. Room card worked fine. Very simple room design; grey walls/floor, pitch-black furniture, 1 basic chair that reminded me of school chairs, brown shower-tub combo. Bedroom lighting a bit dim, but okay for the size. Room had a depressing prison vibe. The corridors too; battered, brown carpet floors, grey walls. The motel wasn't designed to make you feel happy. Huge bed, much space, very soft pillows, mattress just right, not too hard, nor soft. 3 USB slots in room; under TV and at the bed, a welcome surprise, could charge my phone, never needed my powerbank. Huge TV, 40 channels, watching was entirely free and unlimited, so was the Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi signed me out often, but worked well otherwise and was relatively fast. The big and comfy bed, the USB slots, the huge TV with its generous number of channels and the Wi-Fi saved the room. Room was mostly clean on arrival, only tiny bit of leftover dust on TV table and few, brown stains on white bed sheets. Sheets, blanket and pillows were fresh and washed, though. Had to give an overall "Poor" rating, still, cause of a few issues. Elevator didn't always work, brought me to the wrong floor (3) two times, mostly took stairs to avoid getting stuck. Room toilet leaked each flushing on first 3 days, had to wipe up, toilet tank was full of mold. Shower head didn't always work, water came from faucet instead, "showered" with a cup few times. "You get what you pay for." Only book if you can't afford better.
