Looks as if it was recently remodeled but its getting worn out faster than expected. The carpets in the stairwell and hallways need a good vacuum.

Tried to charge me a daily parking fee when I checked in. I told her it was not shown as a fee and I wasn’t charged a parking fee when I stayed a month ago. She decided not to charge me. Stairwell hand rails and carpet are filthy. The hallway had a pile of BADLY soiled linings outside a room from Saturday morning until I left Sunday morning.

Would not recommend

I was optimistic with the reviews that it was a nice venue that would be clean. That wasn't the case. The first room has a roach on the floor and other debris. The second had a dirty fridge and mold on the restroom. The phones in both rooms did not apply to have been touched. As for the facility it was a pet friendly but non smoking, but the elevator smelled like a skunk room.
