The location is ok, you don't get $25 deposit back even when you get the receipt they are giving back and there is a lot of homeless people there and drug dealers it was clean enough to stay but I wouldn't recommend it
Bed were very uncomfortable and even though there was multiple people staying in room they refused to give more then 2 towels! Smelled like moldy water! And they allow people to smoke drugs on property.
This place was disgusting! The room looked like it had not been cleaned in months. The sink had been leaking so there was water all over the floor, bugs crawling on the floor, bedding was dirty. The staff and housekeeping were very rude!
Disgusting. Room filthy: toilet, towels, bedding. 1/2 the lights out, smoke detector missing, asked for refund and told I missed the 30 minutes to get one. Was able to get bleach from house keeping so I could self clean the bathroom and room surfaces. Never experienced such an establishment like this.
There was mold in the room an the place look like a run down crack motel the bed had yellow stains on sheets I do not recommend anybody to stay at that hotel the pictures on the web pages are not nowhere as nice as theses pics
WiFi didn’t work, the room smells especially the chair in there, the bathroom door it look like mildew and had mold on, the trashy people partied all night, neighbor unsafe, trash everywhere on the grounds. We will not be coming back here ever. Only three pillows for two people.
The rooms were falling apart and filthy. The pool was so cloudy and had stuff floating in it. The keys didn’t work and the clerk tried to blame me for holding the key too close to my phone. I had to go to the office and change them out twice. Then I called to say I wasn’t going to go back up there, he sent a resident with another key that didn’t work. Needless to say we cut our stay short, Don’t bring your family here.
Surprise $25 fee at check in with no explanation. Staff was too busy on her cell phone with her friend to answer any questions.
Room is filthy. Disgusting. Afraid to even sit down in my clothes. Do not by any means stay here. Room smells like musty cigarette smoke, with air fresheners shoved into the in unit A/C to haphazardly mask the smell.
Horrible property.
The staff was nice and really trying. That why i gave it 3 stars. Was it worth the $48 dollars i paid and not a dime more yes. Did my door look like it had been kicked in several times and i was about to star in an episode of the forensic files? Also yes. But i didn't get murdered
