The hotel is not in the best of shape. There is a smell of perfume throughout the building. There was a shortage of hot water and the TV quit on us. This is a pass for future trips.

Average hotel for price

Room was clean, deodorizer was overpowering when entering room. Kitchenette was great- everything you needed for meals. Only 1 chair in room- really needed 2. Staff helpful. Met out needs as we really just used it for sleep. Rug cleaning and maintenance scheduled while we were there. Had to pack up all our stuff and take it with us while they were cleaning as we didn’t have a scheduled time they would be in our room.

Cheaper lodging needs improvement

Worse coffee made by a coffee dispensary machine, old coffee cream powder packs that are so old that the powder caked up. No coffee filters or cream in the room. The dishwasher leaked water without use. Missing towels, no floor towel. Water pressure is lower than par. It's not a good valve.

Tried to check in at 4:00pm( check in time). Was told room was not clean and would not be cleaned for at least 1-2 hours. When we returned to check in and was given key, the room was dirty and I called to ask for disinfectant wipes because I was discussed and wanted to clean it, only to be told they didn’t have any. Then found a dead cockroach. No pet park like was told their was one. The photos seen on line did not match room, it needs to be updated. The front desk help was the only good thing about this place..
