Guest Reviews
- David (7/5): -
- Gerald (9/5): -
- Marie (9/5): - Clean and comfy
- Ralston-Asumendi (4/5): While the location was convenient, the premises were rough, almost almost construction-like. - Limited choices, watered down juice If the hair dryer had worked, if the outlet in the bathroom had worked, if the lamp outlets could have supported my hair dryer, if the explanation of how to access my room had been clearer, had the noise from the room above not penetrated through my room's ceiling
- Ann (10/5): Would come back - It was everything I needed. Quiet. Fairly clean. Good water pressure. HOT water. Comfortable bed. The smell of the room
- Christopher (1/5): It was not comfortable or pleasant at all - The bed linen and spread had cigarette burn holes. The toilet stayed clogged and it sounded like the people above us were doing demolition all night.
- Ulas (2/5): - Lokation The sheets weren’t clean, the faucet was broken, and there was a strong food smell in the corridor.
- Destiny (10/5): -
- Bill (8/5): -
- Magan (10/5): -
- Estes (8/5): -
- Rodrigus (1/5): I did not like it at all ! - There was ants in the bed and roaches in the refrigerator
- Allen (4/5): It’s a good place to sleep if you’re out of town. The front desk was friendly and accommodating. Don’t book here if you - Good place to sleep if you’re working out of town and prompt room service and good front desk people. Mold in the bathroom, cockroaches, cracked toilet seat and the AC didn’t cool the room off.

- Smith (8/5): -
- Matthew (1/5): Avoid at all costs! - The location was fine, and the 24-hour desk was convenient I requested a non-smoking room and did not get it. No one told me this was the case, and when I got to the room, the window was wide open like it was being aired out. Sheets and pillows were dirty, and there were bugs everywhere, especially in the bathroom. It was so bad that I actually left after inspecting the room, because I thought I'd bring some kind of bug home if I stayed. Safe to say I won't be wasting my money here again
- Nayoung (1/5): Never again - Nothing Roaches, showers n taps not working, smell, dirtiness, appliances not working, etc etc
- Steven (6/5): This was our go to hotel for year but something has changed within the last year, cleanliness has declined and some susp - Cheap and the location Seen a few bugs in the room, strangers knocking on our door a couple of times and can be a little noisy with the people in and out slamming doors

- Oliver Yaman (8/5): - What I needed for the evening Chair arms are filthy, floor was dirty, where the mini muffins containers need to be cleaned desperately.
- W (5/5): Get what you pay for. - It was inexpensive and the ladies at the front desk were friendly. The bed wasn’t comfortable. The sheets had cigarette burns. The tv was small and old.

- Steven (1/5): Bad -
- Steven (1/5): Bad -
- Amysha (1/5): Bad -
- Rodriquez (10/5): Exceptional -
- Russell (2/5): Would never stay again. - Location was good The hotel is filthy and full of cockroaches. People smoking all over the place.
- Walter (8/5): Very good - The location was off a little meaning if you was coming from one direction you had to pass the hotel by at least a block turn around and come back to it
- Lamar (8/5): Very clean and convenient - Did not use this time. Will next time
- Lorie (5/5): Passable - It was conviently located. It wasn’t the property’s fault. A storm came through and knocked all the power out. So for 4hrs no electricity
- Stephenson (6/5): Pleasant -
- Kelly (6/5): Pleasant - Convenience Property needs updated
- Allen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Harrelson (9/5): 9 out of 10. - Price, cleanliness, comfort, location were all excellent for our needs. Breakfast was a slight disappointment. Limited selection.
- Laura (10/5): - Yes
- Beth (2/5): Won’t stay here again. - Very dirty. Halls smelled of smoke and musty. Sticky floors. Refrigerator had rust spots all over front. Room chair was torn and stained. Comforter appeared to have a cigarette burn in a no smoking room.

- Marcel (8/5): Very good -
- Tina (1/5): Bad - Nothing Staff was rude wasn't clean rooms didn't match the pictures on the app
- Debra (6/5): Pleasant -
- Tristina (1/5): Bad -
- Aurelia (5/5): Passable -
- Cecely (1/5): Wouldn’t recommend. - Nothing Staff wasn’t friendly. The room smelled weird and it wasn’t cleaned properly. Bed sheets had holes in them. Microwave and refrigerator was dirty. The price wasn’t bad so I guess it’s true when they say “you get that you pay for.” The hotel I initially wanted was booked so this was my last choice. I’m not a very picky person, but I am BIG on cleanliness! And this just wasn’t it 😔
- Brewer (7/5): Good -
- Francisco (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lil (10/5): Exceptional - Exceptional No complaints
- Carolyn (6/5): - Smoke smell came thru vents and doors from other floors. And my door lock stopped working so once closed you could open it without the key card from the outside.
- Julie (6/5): It was ideal for a few hours of sleep nice staff real helping - Parking and the back look like a homeless cat shelter
- Stephanie (7/5): Good -
- Beverley (3/5): It's gonna be a long night! - The price was good, the manager was very pleasant. Noisy, noisy, noisy! And staff made no effort to control the noisy guests so others could sleep!
Staff would stand at the entrance and smoke, even when a sign was placed asking them to respect the guests and not so so.
There is not ample parking.
- Sigal (2/5): Trash - This hotel is in terrible hygienic conditions, there are cockroaches everywhere, stains on the linen and the smell throughout the hotel is unbearable. It will be ready for demolition at any time. I tried to get my money back and they didn't, they have no cancellation policy.
- Beverley (4/5): If you are looking for a good night's rest, keep looking! - Comfortable beds, good value. Lazy staff, dirty bathroom, you get awakened nightly by noise from the parking lot. Front desk staff at night allow cars with loud music to park in lot and sit there.. The toilet clogged, I told the housekeeper, she did nothing. I returned to the room that evening and had to go to the desk and ask for a plunger and take care of it myself. The ice machine does not work, it has not worked in many days. There are stairs to access the first floor, there is a ramp, but it is blocked by a vending machine. There are no luggage carts so all your luggage must be carried down the stairs, but even if there was a cart, you couldn't use it because the ramp is blocked. They have accessable rooms, but unless a wheelchair could climb stairs, I don't know how they could access the room. There were employees who sit outside the main door and smoke cigarettes. You have to walk through the cloud of smoke to exit the building.
There just seems to be a great lack of concern for the comfort and convenience of the paying guests.
- James (10/5): As always very clean and convenient. -
- Randy (8/5): - Very dirty floors in the bathroom. Cigarette burns on the bed and furniture
- Jacqueline (8/5): Very good -
- Kenneth (8/5): Very good -
- Phyllis (8/5): - No ice machine. Machine has been broken for a while. Was broken on my last visit here.
- Steven (8/5): Very good -
