I can’t say anything positive about this property. It was dirty and smelled so incredibly bad! There were bugs and mold everywhere! It is also clear that there are full time residents living here. Overall not a good experience and will not ever be returning!

Beds are horrible. They need to change the mattresses. Felt like I was sleeping on rocks with metal coming up my back. They REALLLLLYYY need a huge renovation and changing of the carpets. Service was subpar.

The common areas were dirty with carpet coming off of the ground. I knew I had made a bad decision when I pulled into the parking lot and could see tires stored on a balcony. The smells in the hallways and common area were bad. Staff were helpful and room was relatively clean.

Before booking this trip, I noticed a lot of reviews that mentioned lack of cleanliness, or coming off as old-fashioned. I don’t think either are true. Only issue was construction cutting off the shortest route to the building, but I had a great time. Thanks guys! :)

Confusing directions

I never got to check into my room because when I arrived there at what I thought was before the office closing time there was a sign on the door saying that the office had already closed for the night. It gave confusing directions about going down the parking lot to talk to the attendant if I a key or for registration. The parking lot was huge with many buildings and the nearby one I tried seem to have no relation to the hotel and be some kind of residential place. I never got to check in so I don't know how the rooms really were.

The staff were very nice; they were great. We had room 251 - DO NOT ACCEPT THIS ROOM. The suite must have been lived in prior to our stay - it was clean, including freshly steam cleaned carpets and couch - the couch and cushions were still wet. The stench in the room was absolutely DISGUSTING. Clearly someone had been a heavy smoker and had a bad dog odor in the room. We asked for another room but were told it was sold out. The smell was so bad that we slept with the windows and sliding porch door wide open. I can’t believe this room was rented out to people. People clearly live at the hotel; this was not an issue, but be ready for this environment. The hallways and elevator are run down, carpeting is pulled and easy to trip on, there is a moldy-smoky stench throughout. If you can afford another place, I would recommend looking elsewhere. I would never go back here. The only redeeming quality about the place the staff.
