Bad Decision

Very run down, walls were filthy. Broken tiles in the bathroom very limited parking space. Floors were sticky. We checked out a night early and booked another hotel for the remainder of our stay.

No one really cared about anything. My son lost his key and was able to get a new key to our room without even having his ID. The room had food still in the microwave from one of the last guests(or the employees?) The good news, it's cheap.

The property was not in good shape . Our room was dirty and smelled like cigarettes. Paint was peeling in the bathroom, the lamp shade was filled with stains. The entry door the keep pad was broken on inside off door along with door frame. It looked like someone kicked the door in and it was never fixed. The room had two beds and one bed was pushed up against the heater which is a fire hazard. We went to the front desk to ask for my money back I was not going to stay in a room that was 180 per night plus 100 dollar deposit. The manager of the hotel was rude at first she was not going to refund me . We had to point out all the damage in the room and the fire hazard regarding the bed being pushed up the heater. She mentioned that all the rooms were the same with the beds against the heater/ac unit. End result she agreed to cancelled my two night stay with a full refund of $460. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone

Welcome to downtown Reno :/

We chose this property over others for the free breakfast. This turned out to be a granola bar or little bites mini muffin in a tiny bag. Night staff was helpful and friendly. Morning not so much. Property is let's say, gritty. Unhappy customer kicked in the glass office door the same night.

Should be priced lower

Free breakfast is just energy bars, and coffee. Not worth the cost for a daily stay
