The beds felt like i had moved in with the Flintstones. Felt like i was laying on bedrock. One bed supposed to be soft and one firm, but both are like sleeping on the floor. It took forever to get my deposit back. I wont be staying there anymore, advise you not too.

Property and stay was okay. I understand they were under construction in some areas of the Hotel. But when I entered my Hotel room. I kept hearing a beep as if I was in the Hospital. After looking and looking, I found an additional smoke alarm under the mattress along with items you would use for narcotic use. I called the front desk to explain what had happened and what I had found. I then took it downstairs and no one seemed bothered about the situation. No apology, no change of room recommendation or credit. My son and I ended up sleeping on the floor as we did not feel safe to sleep on the bed.

Good lord DO NOT STAY HERE. Our bath tub was full of mold and the hotel smelled like weed and cigarettes. Our tub would not drain so I tried to switch the room, got switched to a room that was DIRTY. The bed was not made and it looked like someone was staying there. They did not have another room so I got a refund. Never ever again.

I should've paid closer attention to the reviews of this hotel before booking my stay because it was truly so dirty and old. I do not recommend anyone stay at this hotel. I asked to have my room changed initially because the original room smelled like cigarettes and was in terrible condition, but the second room was exactly the same, not to mention the mold in the bathroom. It felt dirty, full of germs, and I just could not imagine myself sleeping or even showering in a room with those conditions. I left the moment I saw my room and quickly booked myself a different hotel.

There were not many eggs/meat to eat. No oatmeal or fresh fruit. The elevator would not have passed inspection (especially in our home state)! The bathroom faucets needed maintenance. The bed was comfortable and we slept well.

I'm truly shocked they can advertise this property as 3 Stars. The exterior of the hotel is completely unbranded and bathed in an uninviting blue/grey color. The lobby was a nice surprise, but that was the extent of anything nice here. Our room had an odor to it, overlooked the dumpster, the walls were completely ruined, and the bathroom was quite dirty with hair and mildew on the shower wall. The smoke detector was chirping when we walked in, so we called maintenance who informed us he hopes nothing breaks in the hotel because he uses YouTube to fix everything. When I took a shower, the water went ice cold four times (assuming it was somehow connected to the toilet in a neighboring room), and the shower leaked through the bedsheet of a curtain and soaked the bathroom floor, including the clothes I had laid out to wear. The maintenance manager was quite nice (despite not being qualified for the position), but the property manager offered no response to our concerns. I am not a diva and wouldn't have complained about these items if the property was advertised correctly as a 1 or 2 Star hotel. But I cannot fathom how this can legally be listed as 3 Stars.

It was a sticky stain on the floor. The door that leads to outside doesn't latch or lock so anyone can come in and out at any point in time.. The shower head is positioned to spray against the back wall which makes water get all over the floor as well as making it difficult to take a proper shower.. The people working there were really nice though. They're just trying to do their job and they can't help that the owner doesn't take better care of his facilities.. The door latch not functioning is an extreme safety hazard.

Although the property is in the process of being upgraded, the room felt grimy and several items were damaged. I book a room with queen beds but they only had full beds. There was lots of noise in the hallway and the elevator felt as if it were going to crash. It showed it was inspected May 2025, but it seemed that repair was warranted. The stair were on the outside of the building with no keyed entry so anyone could walk in onto the floors and if you wanted to take the stairs rather than the elevator you walked outside.

I was very disappointed with this hotel. Within five minutes of checking in, I found a roach on the wall behind a picture frame. The room was not clean, and the ceiling had signs of a leak that was never properly fixed. The overall appearance was old, dirty, and unappealing. It felt nasty, and I didn’t feel comfortable staying there, so I left shortly after arriving. The only positive part of my experience was that the man at the front desk was very nice and professional. I would not recommend this hotel.

The bathroom needs a lot of work. The toilet rocked every time I sat down, the tub wasn't clean enough to take a bath in, and the wallpaper was peeling. I had to clean around the sink before we used it. The shower faucets needed some manipulation to turn on and off. We could hear the music playing in the lobby all night, but it wasn't loud enough to keep me awake. The staff was good and the breakfast was great.

Not as pictured. Really run down place. Old blood stains on my linens when I looked under the covers. Black stains on shower corners. Table lamp light "worked" but light bulb was literally hanging sideways. I locked my door when going to bed since I felt a bit unsafe, I woke up and my door was unlocked.. glad I had the safety lock up top in use too. Every time I would scan my card once to get into my room, I would have to go to front desk for them to re-register my card for it to work again. Mattress is rock hard and I'm not a picky sleeper. The 7.3 rating when I booked was incredible misleading.. but it explains why the place is so "affordable". I left after one day stay even though I paid for two nights. I didn't complain to front desk.. they have signs everywhere addressing some of these issues and plenty of other bad reviews to understand what needs to be fixed. They just don't care. Really nice front desk.. just terrible owners/management
