Alright, for a MOTEL, this is pretty good. I say this because we had no idea we booked a motel, so we tried to not to let our mistake affect our overall expectations of this place. We were safe, a roof was over our heads, the breakfast was good, and the walking distance wasn’t far from parking lot to room door. However, it was very loud in the mornings when staff or guests would walk by our front door, which was on the first floor and close to the gym. Also, we could hear the guests walking in the room above us but I’m assuming that’s normal for motels, or maybe these guests stomp more than the average Joe? Wasn’t a fan of the shower head, either, as it sprayed everywhere and I had just gotten a tattoo on my ankle and would’ve preferred a less messy spray to not agitate it. On the plus side, when I needed things, the staff provided them promptly and were friendly/helpful. The breakfast was delicious and overall it was a decent stay. Like I said, for a motel, this is a good choice.

Pro’s: staff nice and helpful, inside room clean and updated. Beds and pillows comfortable. With windows closed moderately quiet. Con’s: price gauging because of near by university welcome week, 400.00 a night ! Location on a corner with a signal and massive traffic, ambulance sirens, honking Our view was homeless people begging for money. The towels were worn and mismatched. Internet service down the entire 2.5 days we were there. Breakfast was disappointing. This place felt like an over priced motel. Only if you could get a ridiculously low rate would I consider staying there. I personally willl never consider staying there again.

Overall stay was okay. I arrived to check-in too early. When i wanted to use the lobby bathroom staff was using it and took too long. With the room bathroom and other areas needed detail cleaning. It must be deep clean every time.

Easy parking, and staff was nice. You. Could hear every person that is staying I. The complex. Walls and door are thin, you can hear all the cars on the street. Bathroom outdated and room key kept deactivating. Overall decent stay. Not worth money they charge.
