I had just checked in and someone entered my room wearing blue medical gloves while I was just getting out of the bathroom. No second lock is on the inside of the door. Place looks like somewhere people go to die. Otherwise the front desk was very accommodating and apologetic. While it may be great place to stay for others, I did not feel safe. Received a a full refund with no issues.
The only saving grace to this facility was the front desk worker (he was very kind).
We checked in to a room that wasn't what we ordered. We needed 2 beds but got one with a pull out.
When we opened the pull out bed it had so many crumbs and and a used plastic spoon. Like it hadnt been cleaned for god only knows when.
When we asked for linens for the pull out, we got blankets with several cigarette burns.
When we checked out, people were calling the ambulance due to an overdose. When we got to our car, people were working on their vehicle - like actual mechanical work. This place is ghetto and disgusting, and unsafe. Spend a tiny bit more and go anywhere else.
Would have left but it was after midnight and we were exhausted.

Disliked: Room comfort
Very loud neighbors, all night long. Staff did nothing to enforce quiet hours. Poor breakfast.
A place to stay, but room floor had hair and so did tub. Toilet has not been cleaned thoroughly.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
The positives, convenient location, beds were clean & comfortable, a working refrigerator, and friendly staff.
The negatives, ants in bathroom, hair in both sink & bathtub, sink faucet leaked from base all over the counter anytime water was running, noisy (loud people in hallways and other rooms), limited amount of convenient parking.
Not a bad place to stay. Staff was very nice and accommodating. We did have an issue with our room key so they put us in a different room, however they didn't change it in the system. So at 2am we got woken up by someone else coming into our room.
