My stay started off well with a friendly and welcoming receptionist. Unfortunately, my experience quickly went downhill. On my first night, I found roaches in the bathroom and small insects on the desk. When I reported it to the front desk, instead of offering to move me, they asked if I wanted the room sprayed and said the insects come inside when it’s cold — which I found hard to believe since I was on the second floor. When I returned later, nothing had been done — towels were still on the floor, and no one followed up. Another guest on my floor had the same issue. I reported the problem again at checkout, but I still haven’t heard from a supervisor. This was a very disappointing experience, and I would not recommend this location unless these issues are addressed.

This hotel has seen better days. I stayed here from 2015 to 2020, and it was great back then. The suite door was misaligned, making it hard to open and close properly. The room next to ours had a large dent, and the breakfast was subpar. Other family members stayed at another hotel a few miles down, which offered a hot breakfast. There was an unpleasant odor in the room, which I managed to get rid of with my Lysol spray. There is a section of the hotel where people were LIVING in the rooms as well. A guy would be by the side door smoking marijuana. Overall, I won't return, especially for us, a typical four-night stay w/taxes costs around $170.00. There are better and newer hotel options. The staff were great!

Very helpful front desk, housekeeping, and breakfast room staff. All of our needs we're met. Hotel is on University near the intersection of Sunrise. Both of which took us wherever we wanted to go. Hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood. A Denny's restaurant and 7/11 are within walking distance. McCallisters Deli (favorite sandwich place) is across the street. Would definitely stay here again.
