The staff was great. Breakfast was good, we just waited too long and not a lot of choices left. Some things are a little dated. Some things need maintenance. Overall definitely worth the price for the location.

The bedsheets were not properly cleaned, they had lots of hairs and makeup on the sheets and pillows, the bathroom was not properly cleaned as well and the bathtubs were full of hairs on the walls and floors. It was fine but wished it had been more cleaned.

Conveniently located near the airport and well priced. The complimentary breakfast was yummy! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. For me personally, I wish the pillows were a little firmer and I had a little trouble trying to figure out how to get the shower to work (perhaps a few instructions on the wall would help). Otherwise, a nice respite after a long day of travel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were friendly, but room was old, run down and dirty (water leak stains on ceiling, drapes half falling down, stained carpet and roach in hallway). Hot tub was out of order, which was the only reason I reserved here. There were space heaters in pool hallway and laundry room, so building clearly has issues. I would have left, but room was paid on my company credit card and it would have been too much hassle. Be aware, price is cheap for a reason.

Staff was friendly and kind but the place is dirty and gross. Not worth the price. I woke up at 4 am to cockroaches crawling on me. You can smell weed throughout the rooms and hallway which is fine but don’t threaten a fine if you are not going to enforce it.

Ok stay
Ok room was great but I was traveling with dogs and they put me on second floor. There are no vending machines at all. They give you 2 towels that’s it. And breakfast didn’t open when I was told it did… it opened 30 minutes later. Bed was comfortable and the room was spacious. Shower only no bath tub.

Seems like an older hotel. Clean and easy to access. Plenty of parking. Beds were a little too firm for me. Otherwise my experience was good.
