It was great for a one night stay. It was close to the venue we were going to. It was not extravagant but it was clean and the beds were comfortable.

The hotel allows smoking. Strong smell of pot and cigarettes. Slamming doors and loud voices. It appeared that the staff didn’t care about the general chaos. I would not stay there again. Seriously, I think a motel 6 is a step up.

Someone came to my room while I was there in the middle of the night, it was very frightening, this was the worst experience ever, thank God I am safe. They must double check who they give rooms to, bc someone will get hurt.
