I checked into the property around 10:30pm. First thing I saw in my room was at least 4 roaches. I went back to the front desk turned in my key and left. The staff wasn't rude at all. The facility is infested with roaches. Totally unacceptable.

They have an automatic system to return the security deposit, but it never worked & not answering the phone! So yes, they took our security deposit! Be careful not to be scammed!
