Terrible experience.

This was the worst hotel I stayed as long as I can remember. Extremely noisy a/c unit that didn’t even work correctly. Throwing burnt smell. Dirty floors, they offer Top stove but not even a small pan or pot to heat water. Unit itself didn’t look like a superior queen that I reserved. Too much to list.

The facility itself was cute on the outside, however It has an older vibe in the rooms which is a bit out dated. The rooms themselves are spacious and clean. The rooms with kitchens are pretty awesome but there is no cookware cups plates utensils etc so it’s kind of a contradiction unless you decide to bring your kitchen with you. The staff is friendly in total. Over all it was not a bad stay. I did go to this specific location because of the kitchenette portion of it so you can just imagine how thrilled I was when I found out even though none of the cookware was in the room they did not provide it at the front desk either.

The room was extremely small and there was only one working light in the room. The shower and faucet had very poor water pressure. Carpets were dirty and felt sticky. Overall not a nice hotel and would never book again.
