The front desk staff was extremely friendly but the room was disgusting. Soon as we walked in the smell of mold and the floor being soaked by whatever substances was very unsettling. But i went back up to the front desk to let them know and the clerk help us get a new and clean room right away. Customer service was great

Worst hotel ever

That was the worst hotel that I’ve ever stayed out. Filthy. The bathtub was filthy. The toilet was filthy. The floors were filthy. They were doing construction which they didn’t say until you checked in so it was extremely noisy and dirty. I don’t recommend this hotel to anybody was absolutely pits.

We did not stay. They are under construction/renovations. We were told that it would be “slightly noisy” due to the work being done. As soon as we got to the first room the workers started outside the room. It was so loud and startling that I had a PTSD reaction.

Will do the job

Stayed here for 4 days in May. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Building overall shows is age, the door to our room needed to be locked to stay closed all the way, bathroom was pretty rundown. The ac worked well and the room was decently clean. Furniture and bed were acceptable. Mismatched and again, just run down but for 70 bucks a night, suppose thats what it is. Pool area was nice, pool was clean. Convenient to public transpo and lots of restaurants very close.

Not a bad accommodation for the price.

Very friendly staff upon check-in and exit. The room was clean and the a/c was amazing which is a necessity for me. When I read the other reviews I was a bit hesitant but much to my surprise everything was just fine. The side entrance was a bit dirty and there were no coffee cups for the coffee they offered but that wasn’t that a big a deal as we were headed out for breakfast any way. Overall we were happy with the stay. If you just need a place to sleep and a hot shower this isn’t bad for the price.
