There was hair on the bathroom floor and roaches as well. The bed seemed clean. I did not feel safe because people were coming off the street, walking to people outside their door making exchanges , then walking back to the street. We could also smell someone smoking weed outside our door late at night. When I went to the office area to get coffee there was a man sitting un a chair watching me and talking to himself. He didn’t seem to be affiliated with the property.

Due to snow storm I was unable to go to a funeral, which is the reason for the hotel stay. The people at the hotel have refused to cancel my reservation as requested. They were rude and hateful.

It was a very good stay than expected. Check in was smooth and staff are so so nice. They will make sure to address any of our needs and concerns. Stay is quiet and there is a restaurant in 100mts distance that’s an advantage. Rooms are good to stay. Hotel staff are highlight to this property, they are very professional and helpful.
