Excellent stay. I saw other reviews that had given this property low rating because of the surrounding area, but I find that unfair. Unfortunately, homelessness is a problem at all major cities. There are a lot of housing unsecured folks behind this property but there are walls separating them from the hotel and the location itself is safe. I wouldn’t go jogging but again the hotel team has done a great job maintaining safety of the guests and vehicles. I really enjoyed my 4 nights stay here and I would definitely come back.

Not sure how this place gets such good ratings. The area is horrible (not safe to walk in) and while the entrance is pleasant, the rooms are sub-par. Staff was friendly though.

Governors INN

Hotel was clean service was good. Room was dated. I felt I was given a bad room because I bought through a third party. My room was above a McDonald's drive thru, They started vacuuming the halls at 730pm. I felt safe within the hotels property but anywhere off of the property was scary and didn't seem safe, huge plus is the free airport shuttle but I don't think Id come back,

This is a pretty convenient location. I'd call it a slightly higher end Motel 6 type of place. The rooms were really large and the staff nice.

The property itself is very nice. The room was beautiful and clean. Nice amenities. Jolene at the desk was wonderful and so helpful and kind. My only concern was the amount of homeless in the area. They are everywhere! The hotel does have some security measures in place, like keeping all the doors locked and having key card access. But I made sure I parked right next to the building directly under a street light and I walked quickly into the building and made sure the door was shut behind me. I was glad I was on an upper floor and not ground level. I'm a woman traveling alone so I don't like being on the first floor. Other than that it was a very nice place to stay.
