The management was disruptive and disrespectful. He called the police on me because I asked him to not talk loudly outside of my room that I paid for. I just wanted to sleep. He insisted i leave which was fine with me. He insulted my hair along with the handicapped white guest. My confidence cannot be dampened by underlings. Yet because Im black I guess he thought I would be afraid but I fear noone. Dont stay at this hotel, not even in an emergency.

Wow, at least you have an active imagination. The reason I was outside your room was we received complaints from the other guests that you were screaming and banging. When I asked you to keep it down you called me "A Cracker" and a few other expletives. As far as people being "Underlings" I guess that's your real problem. We look at everybody as being equal.

Very clean and quiet place to book a room at an affordable price. This is an older building so there are cracks in the bathroom floor at the room I stayed in. But overall, this place is perfect. I did not try the food here since I had to be on the road most of the time, but I'll definitely will stay here again when I'm in the area!

The courtyard in the middle of the units was pleasing. The manager was especially pleasant and helpful.

First, I would definitely stay here again! This is not a fancy hotel. It is even better, because the price was very reasonable, AND the room was clean, the bed was comfy, and everything worked perfectly. I felt safe going to my car at night. Nick at check-in was super nice, attentive, and I saw him often taking care of projects, making sure the property was well-cared for. Kali (spelling?), the adorable office pup stole my heart!
