The inside of this hotel was excellent! Clean room, lobby, and restaurant. I loved having a suite with a bedroom. Outside of the hotel felt unsafe & surrounding buildings were dirty and unkept. We had no issues with safety but I did not feel comfortable walking to my car solo after dark in this area.

The most miserable hotel experience I’ve ever had. The carpet was soaking wet around the HVAC closet. Staff wasn’t even concerned enough to come look at it. There were no other rooms so we had to stay. The mildew & mold smell was terrible, obviously the carpet has been getting wet a long time. The AC was loud, rattling metal and grinding sounds all night long. The highway outside was so loud, we might as well have had the window open. For a “king suite” this was the biggest ripoff and the staff could have cared less. The restaurant service was terrible, took about 25 minutes to get some chicken tenders & fries for the kid. Saw staff standing around picking their noses and doing nothing. Wrote a letter to the manager… no response. Avoid this place if you actually want sleep.

The hotel itself was excellent. I only have two complaints. The first being the location, which isn't something that can be changed, but it drove us nuts being right across from an ER with ambulance sirens going off at all hours of the day and night. Better soundproofing would be in order if you're going to pick this location. We got little to no sleep. Second was the room service food...it felt like we had ordered from door dash, plastic containers and silverware, cold and coagulating, instead of freshly made on nice plates from the restaurant downstairs. We would have gone to a nice restaurant instead had we known.
