It's not the Ritz Carlton however it doesn't mean it's not a good place to stay. Am aged property but they are not trying to be something they are not. The staff is friendly, helpful and just very nice to deal with. We will stay again for sure. Thank you!

The bathroom was not clean. The night staff were very understanding and gave me a new room. In the new room the sheets were not clean and the toilet paper holder was missing. Unfortunately this is the second time I have stayed here and the experience was the same.

The front desk staff were very accommodating and kind. Because this hotel is in the hood, it made us feel slightly unsafe. The bed sheets also were suspect in that they had hair and blood on the one bed.

Scary and gross

Scary people. Drugs and paraphernalia just in the hall. Bloody sheets. I was horrified. The man at the desk was amazing at check in. I rented it for my x so my daughter could see him cause thought price was good. Didn’t expect much. But wow the drugs and rigs right in the hallway. My daughter was not allowed to go back.

My towels were dirty and so was my bed spread. The vending machine is waaay over priced, ($3.50 for a nutrigrain bar) It has laminate flooring, and it wasn't clean. Public areas were reasonably clean. If you are on a budget and not concerned about such things, its only moderately over priced.

Spacious room. Respectful Staff both at front desk and housekeeping. Contrary to some of the reviews I've read, I saw no evidence of roaches or any other bugs. The central location of this motel is a definite plus because I don't drive. The competitive prices were also appreciated. I will be back very soon!
