Just Okay.

The hotel was okay overall, but there were a few things worth noting. Construction next door made navigating the parking lot a bit chaotic, and there were homeless people nearby and even in the lot, which gave the area a bit of a shady feel. It also seemed like a number of people actually lived at the hotel, which changed the atmosphere compared to a typical stay. I worried about my car at night, but thankfully we had no issues. The AC unit was very loud, and the property itself is definitely older and showing its age. That said, it served its purpose for a short stay.

Never again

This was a horrible stay! I have stayed here before many times. The hotel has let its establishment ho tobthe wayside. There are bugs all over such as spiders, ants and other bugs. We refused to even eat food from this property. The beds are terrible and this place needs an upgrade

There was some construction going on right next to the hotel, so the pool was gone, and parking was limited on one side of the building. On the other hand, we had a room on the end of the building with parking right in front. It was pretty quiet and clean. The complimentary breakfast was simple but good. And the location was pretty close to everything we needed to go to.

This hotel was good for what you pay! The hotel itself needs to update photos because those photos are not how the hotel looks currently! The area is just ghetto—homeless people everywhere—and they are partying it up in the canal just next door. Then let me tell you, the SWAT team came out, and the next morning the investigation team was investigating something that looked serious! But yeah, we had the kiddos. The hotel was just mid—they never mop, but the staff and breakfast were good! However, please update the photos, guys…
