We were only here just two nights and didn't want to spend a lot of money. After booking, I started to look at some of the reviews and thought that maybe we should stay elsewhere, but this place was not as bad as what I was reading in the reviews. Yes this place was cheaper than other nearby suites, we wanted a place that had a kitchenet that didn't cost an arm and a leg. I was pleased that our room was clean, the AC was working and not as noisy as some hotel rooms we've stayed at. The kitchenet was stocked with pretty much everything one would need to cook simple meals and place settings for two. But seating wise, there was seating for one only. I suppose you can call the front desk and ask for an extra chair if there were two people. If I need to stay in this area again, I wouldn't mind staying here. Parking was good even though there was a charge. Other hotels/suites in this area charged more for their parking. We really didn't go out much, but from what we could see when we did go out, the property itself was neat and looked well maintained. Yes we would stay here again.

Not the best - needs a lot of work

The hotel is old. The room was small but showed wear and tear throughout. From a busted recliner chair to a desk chair with holes and scratches. This place needs work. Bathroom door didnt close all the way. Desk had gouges in it. Lampshades are worn and stained. Stains on the headboard and wall by the bed. I could go on. It needs work. Having a small kitchen with fridge and sink was nice. I have photos but cant upload them.

I would not come back

Not impressive at all. No house cleaning during my stay, and the service was basically nonexistent. The facility is old and outdated, with a small gym that doesn’t offer much. No smart TV in the room, which was disappointing. On top of that, they charge for parking—just another unnecessary fee. Overall, not worth the price. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Easy parking and the area was nice- safe. The hotel itself was disappointing. There was no dining at all. The fitness area was limited. AND the hotel was dirty. There were cockroaches running in the halls and the cleaning service was poor. My room was not cleaned the entire time. I mentioned the above to the front desk staff and there was not communication from management.
