The Maintenance in the place is very underrated, but it could be because of all the young 'Party Goers' that get somewhat out of hand. If you are just looking for a place to put your head and get some food, this is the place. Otherwise, there are plenty of other hotel options.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Rooms smelled horrible , the room was not cleaned in 8 days only the bed was made. In your description, room had WiFi and a safe. I had to pay extra for WiFi and the safe. It was one of the worst hotels I EVER stayed in. I wrote you an email and never got a response from you. To say the least I’m not empresst with you too.
