The rooms are kind of updated. One spot that definitely is NOT updated was the bathroom (minus the flooring). The fixtures were probably 40 years old but still worked fine. I did find a couple of random hairs left behind but I paid $56 a night. Other than that, the room was clean. The common areas look pretty rough and smell strongly of cigarette smoke, but it's not a big deal as you're in them for like 30 seconds coming in and out your room. They also allow pets with no extra fee, which is a big plus since not many hotels in the area offer that. It's not a great place to stay but it's cheap, adequate, and fit my needs. I would stay here again if it came up. Just manage your expectations relative to the price you pay. It's not going to be as nice as a place that costs $200 a night, so don't expect it to be.

One bad bed and a nasty roach!

Check-in was great, the employee was very nice and we had a few good laughs. When I went to lay down and go to sleep the springs in the mattress were coming through so to speak. It was midnight and the area was sold out. Fortunately, we had two queen beds and my daughter and I now had to share. Really defeated the point about two separate beds. But for the best part, in the morning I was getting ready and I opened the shower door and there was a roach! We had to go through all of our stuff dump it out and make sure we weren’t bringing any of them home with us. Not very happy overall with the stay.

Where to begin. First it definitely did not seem anyone working there knew what was going on. Our room the air conditioning did not work, the window did not have a screen on it so when we openned it to try and cool down the room bugs would obviously come in so couldnt do that. The bathroom shower was peeling the moment we turned the water on. The floor had weird patch marks on it. I definetly would not book here again

Saw a baby Cockraoch, but atleast it was dead I guess.. Shower and bathroom were very wore and dirty.. Sign says recently renovated, so hopefully my room just hadn't been renovated yet? lol.. Beds were pretty hard. Ceiling panels missing in the halls, no elevator so handicap be aware. Stairwell smelt heavily of weed.. There was a plastic cup in the floor of the corner of the room, so makes me wonder how well it was cleaned 😬 lol but it was cheap!!
