One of the worst properties I’ve ever stayed at honestly … service is bad … breakfast is bad … room was bad … the room I stayed at (103) had plugs hanging out the walls , cabinets were broken … doors were Al colored on with random paint and there was a fruit fly infestation I told the guy who was in the front desk if I could change rooms and he denied and was also so unprofessional and kept saying the rooms didn’t have bugs even though I showed him…

Not at all as described on the website. Nothing at all remotely like it. Plug sockets hanging out of walls. Holes In the wall in the bathroom, The door, looks like it has been colored in or not painted correctly. Smoke detector hanging out of the ceiling. Dirt all over the floor. Fan in bathroom falling out of wall. NO DRAIN COVER IN THE SHOWER. It’s an electrical hazard and just disgusting

Cockroaches Everywhere
Infested with cockroaches. If it wasn’t for that it would’ve been fine for a quick trip. Service offered to switch me to a different room, which was nice, but I decided to leave.

Would not recommend this dump to the dogs
The only thing that I can say good about this place is the price online if you go in person it's going to be a little pricey and room 205 and 209 have bad plumbing problems and they're both roach infested most of their rooms have roaches or some type of damage to the rooms and you're either going to get a room with out a coffee maker and a blow dryer or one or the other and the people at the front desk they're not very friendly they have snobby attitudes and it's like they get annoyed anytime you ask them a question and if you're lucky to get clean towels and clean bed sheets and also pillow casing that would be extremely rare because most of their towels look like they have blood stains on them they just don't look like something you would be comfortable using as well as their sheets

Too much noise upstairs
The rooms were very clean and the bed was real comfortable... But they have people with children living there ..and the children made a lot of noise throughout the night... It supposed to be a business not an apartment...
