The room was tiny, bed sucked, sketchy TV and no shampoo or body wash. Was convenient, but the awful bed made the convenience fade when replaced by discomfort.

Clean rooms, convenient location with a friendly staff and spacious rooms and comfortable beds! The only negative was my mother who booked the room was promised a senior citizen discount ahead of time before it was booked but after she paid it was taken away , otherwise it would have been a 5 star hands down!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The location is terrific - close to 81. The room I had this time had issues: - a small fridge jammed into a corner, making it difficult to use the chair - a VERY noisy bathroom fan - vinyl flooring installed without taking it to the room edges (gaps everywhere) - and most disturbing was the small bug (likely a roach) in the bathroom crawling in and out of the electrical outlet

The photos on their website are deceiving
Other reviews talked about their renovations and cleanliness but I didn't think it was great. My daughter was scared to lay down on the bed. It wasn't filthy but it wasn't really clean which just grossed us out. We only stayed one night and just needed a last minute placed to sleep.
