This location charges a $100 security deposit but we were charged $300 accidentally. Smoke free property with many burn marks on the bathroom floor & the toliet ran noisily, continually. The addicts in the stairwell really capped the experience for us but they were more curteous than the staff at check in. Book elsewhere.

Clerk from h3LL

As the saying goes “you get what you pay for”. Checking in was smooth, clerk was nice. Had to leave $100 deposit. In cash! It was returned in the morning by Alejandra who was the rudest person ever. She was busy talking to a coworker and I had to bring it to her attention that I was there to check out. I told her I have a deposit in an envelope and she rudely replies “I KNOW!” Then decides to tell me I need my id. So had to go to my car. She enjoyed pushing my buttons all that time she kept talking to her coworker!! She needs a course in customer service!

TAMMY THE NIGHT LADY... HORRIBLE SERVICE

Front desk lady by the name of tammy was very unprofessional, she treats guest like there all on drugs, i asked her for a simple request and she blew up arguing and yelling at me like if i was not a paying guest. She really needs to change jobs with the disrespect she gave me and others. I told her if you dont like you're job change it, there's know one here that deserves to be treated that way. Stayed there a hand full of times and she's the only one on staff that is horrible, everyone else is great, so if you check in make sure to do it when shes not working usually over nights...

You get what you pay for

We weren't expecting much. It was a major crack all around the door and a smash cockroach on the wall. The bathroom had a couple of dried boogers stuck on the wall. Once we got past that we were okay. Staying there one night. The area is a little bit sketchy. It was $80 so we really weren't expecting luxury.

First night there some guy got his ass beat at like 330am outside of my room. Couple days later cops were there at 12am for some reason. Another night i had a big cockroach in my room i addressed it to the front desk but the girl working was more freaked out than anything to come to some solution so i pretty well let it go. Day before i leave there was a couple fighting at 8am yelling for about an hour. Reminded me of where i grew up. Was entertaining and spontaneous but looking to escape that lifestyle.
