This property was terrible. The room was just okay but the entire hotel smelled terrible (weed). The outside looked unsafe. The smoke detector went off in the middle of the night multiple because someone was using the microwave.

There were a lot of homeless people living near my car and blocking the walkway. The room was very small. The ceiling fan was loud and dirty. The sheets were clean, and so were the towels.

The worst hotel I have ever been to. I had to wait to get my room because they had to inspect the room and was not allowed to be present. When I was allowed in the room it smelled like smoke and the pillowcases looked like they hadn't been changed So, I looked at the sheets and there were stains and looked like they weren't changed. The place looked bad nothing like the photos. The staff was arguing with people in the hallways it felt unsafe. The staff was un-friendly. They wouldn't give me the wifi password. They had to put it in my phone for me. No airport shuttle unless you paid surcharge. A charge if you didn't take your trash out when you checked out. A charge for if towels got stained. A charge if you lost your key.
