Worse experience ever

My flight was delayed and anticipating possible cancellations if I would get there too late, I called them in advance before boarding and beg them to not cancel my reservation. That I was going to make very late at night but that I still needed the room. The person who took my call told me that he was going to add a note. That there was no need to worry. While I was flying they called at 11 pm and because I didn't pickup the call, they cancelled my reservation. The lady who talked to me was extremely rude and even yelled at me saying that it was 3 am. And I said that I called before. She didn't care. I had to sleep in my rental car. Do not trust their staff.

Quiet room and peaceful night sleep

They were very accommodating in the room that was given as I had enormous luggage I had to bring. My room was very clean , the bedding was very clean and the bed itself was very comfortable. I felt safe here and the property is entirely secured by cameras. It’s an older nostalgic property undergoing a renovation. You can see how much time and hard work has already been put into it. The staff were so very kind and accommodating. The price was right for my needs. It takes time to make things happen so if you can appreciate the great qualities of the staff who work so hard to fulfill their duties then I would hope you would give this hotel some consideration .

Roaches in the back

My first few stays had been very good and i would have definitely recommended to others. But after this last stay, they put me and my pregnant girlfriend in a rundown room, infested with roaches. Then to top it off the morning of checkout my girlfriend had been getting sick all morning due to morning sickness and when i asked for a late checkout they wanted to charge me almost half the rooms rate for an extra hour.

ZERO stars if it was an option. There was a huge puddle in the middle of the room upon entry which I had to clean up after almost slipping. The TVs do not work… read that in other reviews and it is true. Last straw was the incredibly rude owner. I was told at check in that I could extend my stay as long as before 11AM. I was so tired and against my better judgement I booked another day at around 9:30AM. The horrific owner told me that I had to check out and come back at 3pm (even though I booked the exact same room). I questioned why and he said I could stay for $25. I said that’s outrageous and this is not the way to do business to which he boldly replied “I don’t care”. I continued to disagree and he said “now it’s $30”. So after the owner tried to extort me I decided to go elsewhere as this place is the worst place I have ever been.
