They front desk staff are polite. No house keeping staff were deployed. Had to leave the hotel on stay early because of a broken shower or issue the water was leaking downstairs to the other room. Front desk staff barged in the room while my wife was showering and had no clothes. We both were scared. I spent 2 and a half hours moving my property very unprepared for this move. The manager was very rude at hearing our concern for a refund because the stay was horrible. Photos of Roach catches all over the room for a roach problem. Have photos of the roach catches, we were very unsatisfied with this stay.

Starting with the positive: The young man at the front desk was so nice, very friendly. Since we arrived so late, we weren’t able to address this till the next morning, but we had no air-conditioning and it was uncomfortably hot. The helpful front desk guy moved us the next day, where we had working AC but no TV. Yes, these rooms are cheap so we had low expectations, but having a clean room, bathroom is a pretty standard expectation.

Management put my son on “no rent list” and did not provide a reason. The manage “Becky” whom is truly a “Karen” was disrespectful to him and a family member. It’s a shame to treat “military associates” in a way that leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

First thing pulling onto property, there were 3 people sitting by a car, right across from the entrance, with a cooler and numerous empty beer cans on the ground. Did realize these people were extended stay guests, that were working in the area and were probably just unwinding from a long work week. So, we let that slide. Walking up the stairs, to our room, the carpet was extremely stained, to the point it looked like people had repeatedly drug many bags of dark liquid up and down. You could also see where wheel marks had ground the stains in deep. Opened the door of our room and had an immediate odor or cigarette smoke and the toilet was running. My wife went to use toilet and noticed a dust/dirt pile in corner, by the tub. Also noticed there was only 1 little bottle of shampoo on counter and no conditioner or body wash. While using toilet, it started running again. Went to bedroom and there was dust/dirt under the top sheets and a huge red stain on the carpet. Living room had cigarette burns in the carpet. Couch had stains and uneven, lumpy cushions. There was not any bedding for the pullout couch. Toilet started running again. I'm sure some of this could have been remedied by contacting front desk, but we didnt stay long enough to consider that option. We left and went to another hotel. The good of our experience was, the staff at check in. Very nice and polite.
