There is a lot of movement in the hallway. The doors don't look secure, and they charge a lot for parking.

The check in guy was so rude, and un helpful, the place smelled like urine. There was no available parking in the lot, so I parked in the hotel next door, and then worried all night if it would be towed. Breakfast was nothing to wake up to. nothing hot to eat, and the juice was so watered down it had no taste.

1 night.

Arrived pretty late in the evening. There are no drinking water dispensers or fountains for guests, just an option to buy drinks from a cash only vending machine. I didn't have cash on me. I asked if there was an option to buy drinks and bill to my room or pay by cc. Clerk suggested to walk to gas station a block away. Inconvenient. Also seen tiny ants on bathroom wall-didnt notice till next morning. Breakfast was ok.
