I read the reviews on yelp and was a bit worried since it started Crack heads and homes on property. Nothing at all, it was clean and the staff was nice. Food locations were all extremely close but there is construction going on so entering and exiting the property was the worst.

Just Okay.

The hotel was okay overall, but there were a few things worth noting. Construction next door made navigating the parking lot a bit chaotic, and there were homeless people nearby and even in the lot, which gave the area a bit of a shady feel. It also seemed like a number of people actually lived at the hotel, which changed the atmosphere compared to a typical stay. I worried about my car at night, but thankfully we had no issues. The AC unit was very loud, and the property itself is definitely older and showing its age. That said, it served its purpose for a short stay.

Never again

This was a horrible stay! I have stayed here before many times. The hotel has let its establishment ho tobthe wayside. There are bugs all over such as spiders, ants and other bugs. We refused to even eat food from this property. The beds are terrible and this place needs an upgrade
