The staff is not helpful and we were kicked out with no reason and no talk with the managers. We constantly had to ask for our room to be cleaned and for garbage to be taken out.

I never write reviews but this one was just an experience. No parking a lot. I was lucky I got something in front after going around the block a few times. The best way to describe the lobby is a space in between two doors. That’s basically what it felt like. The best partn about all of this is what happened during check in. As I was checking in I was greeted to moaning coming from the room that was directly above the “lobby” of this place. You can hear EVERYTHING that was going on in that room. The women was so loud and it was just so uncomfortable and I am not a prude in anyway. The women checking me in didn’t say a word you would think she would apologize and say sorry I know this is uncomfortable but now didn’t say a word. When I got to my room it was the size of a small walk in closet. It was just awful. No room to put your stuff no room to hang your coat. The bathroom was super small. It was the size of a coat closet. I asked for a smoking room they did not give me a smoking room. Never again. It was clean but I don’t think I would be going back.
