. The customer service is horrible. The night clerk had a very disgraceful attitude. I called her about my tv not working, her response was “Ok” then hangs up the phone. Then I called back to see if I got a better response but it was only “OK.. what you want me to do? Then hangs up again. The microwave didn’t work, towels were dirty, baby roaches crawling in bathroom along with other bugs.

Not really clean. Was a few pregnant roaches in my room and it just had a slightly moldy smell. Not well taken care of at all .but it was a place to sleep for a night.

Nice room for the most part, comfy bed, hot shower, friendly service. Woken up around 6:20 am to another customer trying to use her card key on my door and management assisting her. Not sure why the staff didn’t immediately recognize they had the wrong door. My room did show signs of water damage in the vicinity of the shower head and above the mirror over the sink. Also, the tab handle bar was missing, the drain stopper was sitting on the shower wall shelf, and both the entry and bathroom doors had been damaged at some point in the past. I took photos and shared with management, who looked surprised.

Eh

The room was dirty. Dead insects by the window. Let’s not even talk about the smell of weed either. Rooms look nice but honestly not worth it.
