This place is extremely outdated and didn’t provide us a good feeling about how clean the place is. The room did not look like what was shown in the pictures when I made the reservation! I think this is the worst hotel/motel I have ever encountered. We ended up looking and booking another nearby hotel to stay. We understand that we should at least pay for the first night, after explaining our concerns and discomfort about the room, the owner of city Central Motel Apartments was not willing to refund us for the second night. We’re pretty much checked in, found another hotel, and checked out. It was so uncomfortable, we were willing to lose our money to stay in a better place.

Clean comfortable and staff went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable

Would’ve been good if there was a privacy curtain or a tinting on the windows as the windows are huge and look out to the street.
