Beds were fine, location is great, could have been a bit cleaner( gum on headboard for example). No plunger available at desk for my daughters room so had to use our room toilet. No electricity in our bathroom but did fix it second day. Daughters room TV did not work.

Very Poor room condition

Dresser table was missing so everything had to be put on the floor. Floor lamp was damaged and had to be leaned against corner wall as it would not stand on its own. I was to tired to complain and change rooms but will check out room next time before I moving my stuff in.

Clean. But probably one of the most basic and low end hotels I’ve ever stayed in. Breakfast was granola bars and old coffee. Pool was closed and they didn’t seem to be working on it. Yes room was clean but so run down. I could see outside from the gap next to the air conditioner. They put duck tape to cover and it was flapping all night. Tiny room and bed was hard as a rock. If I wasn’t trying to save money on my quick trip I would have checked out and stayed somewhere else. It was a long few days and we tried to spend most of our time not at the hotel. Only perk was the great market across the street. This hotel needs lots of love and attention! I would not book again.

I have to say we checked in at 1 o’clock in the morning, and the girl at the front desk was excellent. The room was nice. It wasn’t overdone by any means the beds were very very comfortable. The bathroom could stand a little updating, but it was fine. I would go back again.

Dont stay here!

It was one of the nastiest rooms ive stayed in, in 20 yrs. Outdated, cheap, ragged look and worn everything. Sheets didnt look clean so much i almost slept in my car. I didnt know what kind of bug was in there but i left the lights on and kept my bags on the bed. The cheap chinese dresser wasnt even sturdy enough for me to put my backpack on without tipping over. Wish i had time to get another place that night but i had to be somewhere 2 hrs after i checked in. The peephole had a wad of toilet paper in it. Standards are bottom line only there and i doubt theyd remodel unless threatend by corporate. Any fixure was old and peeling. Safe was rusty and out in the open.
