I arrived to my room at 1145pm and my room key was not working. I went to the front desk to find out that they had no one at the desk until 7am the next morning. I had to sleep in my car.

The staff was very nice people. The issue that I had with the facility was things were broken and ignored. My door didn't lock (I had to hope no one would notice that you didn't need a key), the shower handle was rigged to work, TV went on and off w\hen it wanted, and walking on the carpet always felt slightly damp like the A/C was leaking. the place needs to be refurbished badly.

First room, the door would not lock which is a major security issue. The second room had two additional guests (cockroaches). Never again.

Okay so im going to be the most honest review you have and i dont mean to be rude i loved the hotel the stay was amazing nothing could replace the experiance i had there i mean nothing will replace it. Mainly cause of the respect i got and the people that helped me have a bed. Even if i had to pay for it there was a very special reason not sexual for me but more promising. Anyway heres the blunt truth. Very good hotel staff was respectful but the clanliness needed a tiny bit of work if the hotel ceo makes enough or the hotel is able to afford services id get the small ant problem fixed in room 221 i did check everything im a stickler but just cause i want to help...im a very creative thinker...anyway the sheets pillows and bedding where good but if you where to clean the mattresses that would be good i guess if i where to do a diy clean id use a steam vac or like try to get them from that color to almost white...the showers where good st night but the hot water is set i believe to be almost a luke warm or kinda steamy temp but not steaming in the way of hot but like a good way to get clean they did provide a drain plug for the bathroom tub which really helped me and let me soak my wounds oh the doors the door to 221 needs its bolt not fixed but its regular door mechinism that locks into the frame of the door needs to be replaced i kept having to jiggle that out and shut the door
