The walls were blatantly dirty, and some of the bedding had stains. No bugs, nice staff, and in a safe area though. Prime example of “you get what you pay for.”

Yes it did. And 3 out of the 10 days that i stayed there the tv didn't work. I went to the front desk to let them know and all they kept saying is that they will get it fix. It wasn't until Tuesday the woman at the front desk she made maintenance go fix it right then. So I thank her because she was the only one that got it done when I talked to her about the problem

My stay at this location was very good. I was initially worried about the room's cleanliness and functionality, but it seems to be mostly redone, and everything works as designed. The parking areas and the immediate area seemed safe and quiet because many company pickups were parked overnight, with equipment, boxes, etc., and nothing was disturbed. I accidentally left one of my rear windows down, and my car wasn't touched during that time. There are quite a few dining options within walking distance.

I had some strange women start yelling on my hall around 3:30a this morning, she then proceeded to start banging on my room door and other room doors creating a disturbance. After she had exited the hallway I went downstairs to contact hotel staff and no one was at the desk. I waited for about 10 mins and no one showed up.
