There were roaches crawling on the wall above the bed and in the bathroom in both rooms they gave us. GROSS! I tried to move hotels but there was not one in the area.

A nice place; I would go back again

It was a nice, friendly stay. They have no food service. No breakfast. They are renovating so the I expect the upgrades will improve things. The bed was OK but the sheets didn't fit.

Great Hotel Just Needs Renovating

It was a comfortable stay. I'm not rushing back to BLVD for a rebooking, but I wouldn't dismiss them either. The building just lacked any new renovations and appeared outdated, but cleanliness was maintained. Staff was very friendly and attentive and assisted with a lost item. If it was not for the lack of renovation that was in my opinion, overdue, this would have been a perfectly affordable and wonderful stay.

The staff was nice and I wasn’t expecting much from this property because of the area and the price. But I feel like I could’ve gotten the same quality somewhere else for a much cheaper price. They are apparently going through remodeling but you can tell it’s poorly done, the A/C unit is super laud, the motor in the bathroom was broken, all the shampoos and other bathroom essentials were all different brands like they just put out whatever they have left and we didn’t even get body wash or hand soap to wash our hands! It’s not the worst place ever but definitely not worth what they are charging

The rooms were filthy. Boogers and hair all over the bathroom. Everything was dirty. The lighting was terrible and felt like we were in a dungeon. They say they are renovating rooms so what you see online is not what you are going to get.

Staff was friendly, but room wasn't great. Bed wasn't very comfortable. The biggest bummer was that they advertised an indoor pool and the the pool was not usable. It was across the parking lot in a weird location, not maintained and not heated. The water was so cold, you couldn't get in the pool.

Something was going on with the checkin process. 3 separate parties were told to sit down and wait. After 10 to 15 mins we all were helped. The bar was open but didn’t have ice for drinks. The bartender offered to make shots 😱

This property is outdated, the entire hotel smells like marijuana, the area is not clean what so ever. The heater did not work in the room. The bathroom fan did not work and made showering a nightmare when you stepped out. I would not recommend this property. This is one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in.
