I didn't even stay for a myriad of reasons and they won't give me my money back. The parking is dirty and so is the lobby. The clerk was one of the rudest people I've met in my entire life. I highly recommend no one stay here.

Everything was great. Only two things hampered our stay. They were the elevator was very slow and little pressure in the shower. Other than those 2 small things everything was excellent, especially the clerks at the front desk at check in and check out were outstanding in every manner. They should be commended.

I guess you get what you pay for. Not very clean, pretty loud, and no food options close by. But the beds were comfy, so slept ok.

Our smoke detector had tape on it rather than a battery cover and it started beeping on our last night. The room was clean but there was only an office chair for seating in the photos it showed arm chairs to sit in so we ended up sitting on the bed the whole stay which isn’t ideal. But overall was a decent stay!
