Worst place to stay! We checked in early and were charged for that option around 35 dollars, which we agreed to pay as we were tired and needed to rest. The rooms are not even close to what they show in the pictures. They are dark, considerably small, smelly and the toilets don't even flush properly due to a low water policy or something ridiculous like that. We stayed as we were tired and had plans to go out almost everyday from our stay. It would have been inconvenient to move to a different hotel at that point. Breakfast was advertised, however not even coffee cups were provided in our room. Cigarette smell and noise were a constant thing during the nights upon arrival from our activities, even though it says somewhere these are not supposed to be smoking rooms. Additionally, we were not careful enough to notice, check and take pictures of everything around the beds and room in general, and oh surprise we found out we were charged close to 50 dollars (taken from the 100 dollars security deposit) because a bed sheet was stained with who knows what, as it was already like that when we checked in. They didn't send housekeeping on our first day of stay...we came back to the room finding nobody had come to clean, on the second day, somebody was told to come back later but never did. In other words, just be careful of you're planning to book a stay in there. Check everything and take pictures of everything to avoid being scammed.

They seem to charge you damage you did not do. They charged me for stained bed sheet which I know I did not do. They say they have a picture so I went back to get a copy of pic as I will be disputing this. I went back immediately after talking with him and I found it very interesting that he had to scoll thru 1 to 2 sceens on his phone to find it. When he did find it I nocted that the pic was in the middle of the sceen along with a full screen of other pics of charge backs for othe rooms, he then clicked on pic to pull it up. I think this is a scam they run hoping poeple do not dispute the charge as it is not that much and even if these pics are real or they just keep using pics over and over again so they can argue with you if you do dispute. Do not rent a room from them as it is fairly run down motel.

Comfortable and affordable

You get what you expect for the price. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The rooms weren’t soundproof so I would suggest ear plugs.

The bedding was just sheets; no duvet and limited pillows. Thought breakfast was included, because that’s what was advertised but was told they don’t serve any. Family felt unsafe.

You get what you pay for

The main entrance smelled like urine. Our room was ok as far as cleanliness goes and our beds were ok too. You could hear people next to us and above us with every step they took and every word they said. It is located on a busy street so noisy all night. It will do in a pinch, but definitely not a place you pick on purpose.

Terrible smell in the room. I opened a window, burned a candle for hours and ran a fan in bathroom but could not get rid of it. Had to wash my hair before leaving in the morning cause it smelled gross of that terrible old rooms's smell of cigarettes, decaying wood and who knows what else. Loud fridge. Had to turn it off. Metal cage between you and a check in guy with poor English and poor customer service skills. Just grossest hotel experience in the last 30 years.

Did the job

The hotel is older and a bit run down but it is clean and comfortable. If you're looking for a quick overnight, this place is a good find. Free breakfast was advertised but in the morning they said they haven't offered that in awhile.

Spacious and clean

The staff was super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious. My only complaint was the location. It’s a bit of a distance from the airport or anything accessible (downtown or stores). It worked fine for a last minute stay during my lay over.

I'll checking in with a fully qualified service dog being screamed at demand and extra documents being told that PTSD service dogs aren't real. And then upon returning from home being charged for a pet cleaning fee until I contacted the media when it was reversed. This is absolutely the worst property I've ever stayed at in my entire life in 71 countries it should be removed from Expedia. Do not stay here!!!!!!!!
