Very dirty, VERY dirty Hair in tub hair on floor. very loud guests (not in their control) but when I asked for it to be corrected they never acted on it. said they would call and did not. I ended up leaving early and did not get a refund for the days I was not there. first night basically did not sleep because of the noise. Tough part is they just do not follow-up to make it better.

I didn't feel safe

Not a great area, surrounded by dr*g users and unhoused individuals, and we heard a lot of gunshots. The place was not well cleaned. The people running the place were nice, friendly and welcoming, but there were plenty of people who seem to be living at the hotel who I hope are getting back on their feet, but appeared to still hold a 'particular lifestyle.'

False advertising of the photos online. Room was disgusting and the staff was extremely unwelcoming. Hotel was supposedly sold in March and that was a mistake on their end.
