Moldy walls, broken toilet, smelled insanely moldy and chlorine smell was paralyzing, somebody’s pocketing money and not taking care of upgrading the property at all. Surrounding and even some of the tenants seemed sketchy as hell.

Pretty normal stay but service sucks no one is hardly ever at the front desk. And for some we kept losing power. Room going pitch black with two small children was awful. Then waking up in the middle of the night sweaty because of no power more so no AC. Wall in room 254 had spray painted letters that was very obviously tried to be cleaned up; however, wasn’t done too well since we could still visibly see it

The bed was very comfortable and it was clean. Loud music and kids screaming after 10pm. For breakfast they did not have much that someone with diabetes could eat. I wish they would have had no sugar syrup for waffles. More selective breakfast products would be nice

Could've been better

Upon check-in, the 1st room we got was filthy and reeked with cig smoke. The 2nd one, we had drug dealing going, and a fight broke between him and another person. The room was filthy. There was blood smear on bathroom door, mold on shower curtain, sticky doorknobs, hair on the floor, and condom wrapper under the bed. Vent in the bathroom did not work. Showerhead was clogged, barely water ccame out. Towels were dirty and with hair stuck on it. Only saw one time for housekeeping person, and the rest of our stay, we never saw a soul. Trash in the room was not cleaned out during our stay. Overpriced for a place like this.

Not good

Our room did not look like any of the pictures on the website. There is water damage and peeling wallpaper. We ordered door dash, sat our food down on a counter and roaches came crawling out from under the counter and tv. We did not have a microwave, mini fridge, or ice bucket in the room. Missing light bulbs and outlets not working.
