Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The Rooms were filthy, the first room had no air that worked, and the drapes were hanging off the window. Then they put us on the first floor, which, by the way, to let you know, the elevator did not work . The second room had no light bulbs and was filthy, plus we had to pay an extra $20.00 in cash as a security deposit
This was the air conditioning
The bed and dirty head board and only pillows for one
The light fixture
the vent in bath room

It was so ghetto, The hallways smelled like weed and it was dirty. The room wasn’t that bad but the whole bathroom was d.i.y when you turned the sink on the whole floor starts flooding, the shower head was leaking, the toilet needed to manually drain from the tank, and the door doesn’t stay closed. We also asked in advance if someone would be at the desk early in the morning and they told us yes but when we got there we waited for over 20 minutes so we just left. (it was 5:00am) I still want my $20 deposit back. Would not recommend this place to my worst enemy.

Room was not fully cleaned. Two pillows and thin sheets. Bathroom had hair from previous stay. Dead bug on ground. Roach up the wall on my way out the next morning. If you need a spot to lay your head for a few hours you get what you pay for. The staff was very kind though!

First times the charm

Room was basic. No fridge, no microwave. Staff will heat and food up in their microwave if needed. Staff was the best part of my stay. Everyone was great. Thank you, to them all. Kinda noisy from outside my room. It wasn't unbearable, but, still noisy.

Although our beds appeared clean,we could feel the springs which made sleeping uncomfortable The paint was peeling in multiple places, dirty corners in the bathroom, the paint job was sloppy. The elevator didn’t work and I have problems with steps. The pool was closed because it hadn’t been cleaned for a long time. and there was a stale cigarette smell throughout the building.
