When we first checked in the bathroom and bed were filthy. We immediately asked for a different room. We were then put in a room that smelt strongly of mold. This hotel was for a work event for 10 nights and after working 12+ hour shifts 8 days in a row it would've been nice to have a good nights sleep to look forward to. Instead we had to buy cleaner to make the room smell better, listen to the people above us slam stuff against the floor all night/morning and eat the same microwaved eggs every day. Also you better hope you are bald because the water pressure in the shower will do nothing to clean your hair. The staff was helpful and friendly but I would never recommend this hotel.

It was ok

Bed was not very comfortable, the bathroom wasn’t that clean, the room felt outdated and was very hot in the 2nd floor and in the hallway, a/c was ok just enough to keep from getting hot while we slept! Breakfast was horrible and cold and not much to choose from! It was very convenient and for a 1 night stay it was decent enough to get a shower and a few hours of sleep!

Sure NOT TO Stay at the SureStay

I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. I gave 2 stars because the bed was comfortable, but the dank and musty odor of the room, the stained towels (all the towels with big yellow spots), and the large nail clipping on the bathroom counter prevented me from giving more stars. Oh, and the front counter employee was asleep behind the desk.

Oh man - we have stayed at this hotel before and it was fine. Unfortunately this trip it was not fine. The bathroom barn door left a 3-4 inch gap - I could literally see my husband walk by the door when I was sitting on the toilet. There was no coffee at breakfast one morning, and another morning the breakfast area was a mess with hardly any food options and no utensils. Our last morning there was also poop in the elevator. We will not be staying here again unless it is the absolute last option available :(

We reserved this months ago and are no strangers to budget hotels. We checked in later in the evening and were sent to a first floor room right near the office. The room smelled gross -- moist, musty, moldy -- even though the a/c was running. I tried to turn on the tv adn the remote was so sticky. So I jokingly wrapped it in a bag for the ice and tried to turn on the tv but the tv didn't work. Then we noticed everything else: the mold on the door, the carpet was damp and the bedsheets were dirty and stained. The bathroom door didn't close. Overall it was the most disgusting hotel room i've ever been in (and we travel with two large dogs so we know budget hotels!). We asked to be moved to a different room and were told the hotel was sold out and there were no other rooms. So we called expedia who told us they'd help us resolve the charge and we left to a different hotel. My first time ever leaving a hotel due to cleanliness.

Management should work on having clean looking towels and sheets. The hallways had a minor odor. The renovation in the room was nice and clean looking- very modern.
