Feels very cheap with poorly thought out colors and flooring in the room. The lighting in the room was very jarring and not comfortable. The floor tiles had several gaps (even though it looked like it was recently renovated). The bed was not comfortable at all. I would not stay at this place again. Bottom line, you could do a lot better at this price.

Nothing fancy but did the job.

Great value for cost- bed was not great, but it was fine for a night, but maybe not multiple nights. The room was a little small but again, location was quiet with little disturbance. Overall, for cost , it was good.

Bad

Hands down worst hotel experience I have ever had. Customer service was bad. The guy who runs it plays games on his iPad and stays in the first room in the hallway. Very unclean. Ended up checking out at 9pm and not staying.

The room had a strange smell upon entering, but everything was clean. The front desk staff was nice! The rooms are very basic with minimal storage space but worth the money. There is also no breakfast. Don’t let the negative reviews steer you away! Cards are shut off 8am day of check out even though it’s 11am

When we walked in the people checking in before us said to the front desk worker “Are you going to tell them the same thing?” And there was an argument between those customers and the front desk worker, the front desk worker rudely told them to move over so he could check us in and to wait for the manager. The customers were having a private conversation and mentioned how rude he was being. The front desk worker stopped what he was doing with my check in and told them he was going to stop them because they were not going to say that he was rude. My boyfriend then stepped in and told him that he was being rude because they were having a private conversation and he needed to worry about getting us checked in. He was then very short with us during the check in. They also charged a $50 deposit which will take 10 days to get back but they charged my credit card for the room at check in and not check out along with the $50 deposit. If I was charged for the room at check in why is it going to take 10 days to get my deposit back?

Avoid! Found bed bugs and mattress and sheets had blood stains. There’s no excuse for that. We got out of there as fast as we could. Thankfully the guy at the front desk was great and accepted to vouch for us with Expedia to issue a refund, which we got.
