Don't stay run!!!

It was very nasty and people at desk was very unprofessional. I will never stay again. Abandoned cars in the parking lot, children running up and downs the halls. It's more like a motel. People in elevator looked high on drugs etc. it was the worst.

Was ok for the price! Definitely could have been a bit more clean. Advice have a handy man go around once a week and paint scratches on walls and doors and trim. Make a world of difference and only costs a quart of paint

The bathroom was really gross. Like this place needs new showers and the water pressure was a trickle. If the showers were nice we would have changed our review but it was the ugliest shower I ever saw soap scum all over no tile.
