Whatever

It was okay. I wasn't expecting much. The bed was comfortable. The overhead lights didn't work. There was only bar soap in the bathroom, no shampoo (maybe that's standard for low end hotels).

When we got to the property we noticed that there was homeless people around. Also there was a roach in the bathroom. They had two flimsy pillows on the bed. I had to ask for more which they did give. The bed was hard as a rock and the people staying at the hotel. I believe we're homeless

I like where the hotel is located, it’s a nice quiet area. The downside was the bed was super hard and uncomfortable. The sheets had stains and the bathroom door was busted.

Disliked: Amenities
When i entered the room there was a weird smell to it. It didnt go away until after I left the window open for a day and left. When I came back to the room that night the smell was gone. There was not a main light that lit up the room but there were little personal lights on each side of the bed. I would rent the room again only if i was sleeping there like i did this last time but if you are going to be spending most of your time in the room I suggest you get something nicer and brighter with amenities like breakfast, a pool, gym and laundry mat on site. Parking is free and a deposit of $50 was collected when checking in, which i love both of those things.

Beware of Stay

Tub was filthy, not sure if it could be cleaned. Grout was molded. Hand towel had dirt on it. Stains on the bedding. TV picture had buffering lines on it. Manager, would not supply me with a receipt on the room stay, stated Hotels.com would give me one. Charged an additional $50 at check in, and promised to return it upon check out, still waiting after 2 days for credit. Homelessness in area.
