my room wasnt prepared - had no blanket or comforter. i had to ask for a banket, which was covered in lint, and make my own bed. my room was non-smoking but smoke detector was covered in plastic by previous occupant presumably so they could smoke. Occupants were very noisy and inconsiderate and parking was difficult. I was also hit by surprise with a $50 hold on my credit card at checkin. i dont recall seeing that listed on expedia.

Will never stay here again!

They said pet friendly but they charged an extra amount per animal per night as well as required a deposit in cash that they said they would refund after they checked the room for damage. Neither charge was included in the hotels.com pricing. First room they offered I took one step into and couldn't breathe. It was musty and smelled terrible with obvious water damage around the air conditioner unit. After requesting a replacement option, it was better but you could tell it was used as a long term stay residence as well as the other rooms in that wing. The front stairs were cordoned off, the elevator was broken as well as the second floor Ice machine. One wing of the second floor was locked and chained off unless someone was staying in one of the rooms which was disturbing.
Chained off unless you were sleeping in a room there
Elevator out of order and no handicap accessible way to get to the second floor
Musty smelling room and obvious water damage around the unit.
