I didn't like the $100 security hold that I won't get back for a week. Also the elevator did not work when the desk person said it did. The stairs were covered in some kind of liquid. And it was filthy overall. The only good thing was inside the room. And we did not feel safe

It’s not the most attractive place to stay. The exterior of the building is in rough shape and dirty, but the rooms were okay. The rooms look like they were remodeled at some point in the last few years unlike the exterior. When we first arrived, we were pretty concerned about the stay due to how sketchy and unattractive the exterior looks. We asked the employee at the front desk if we could take a look at the rooms before we fully committed to the stay, and they were very understanding of it and without a second thought, showed us the two rooms. Considering the price we paid, I expected more from this property, but it was the only choice we had for last minute booking that was within our budget. The hotel doesn’t provide free breakfast but there are multiple diners and stores surrounding the building. The bathroom in our bedroom was not very clean, the toilet bowl had not been brushed well and the shower liner was very stained and looked like it hadn’t been replaced in who knows how long. The toilet itself didn’t flush well, we kept having to flush multiple times in order for waste to fully flush down. It seems like getting that fixed would save the hotel money in the long run. I give this property a 3/5 mostly due to the customer service. All of the employees at the front desk were very kind. I really hope they’re being compensated appropriately because I witnessed multiple customers treat them poorly and they fought back with kindness - good for them!

Lawsuit
There was no working smoke detector in our room. Im actually checking into the legal side of that because i believe thats illegal. It was hanging from the wall. I took pictures. Also, they went in my room in the evening (I only stayed one night) and called me during Summerslam and questioned me about whether not i was staying at the hotel that night. They should never be in room on the evening i check in. I didn't need housekeeping because i had just checked and everyone knows housekeeping occurs during the day. This hotel is going to facing several legal repercussions.

The room I stayed in had not been cleaned of the soap from the previous guest. There was no shower curtain. The neighbors were loud. There was an odd smell in the room. The only plus was that it was smoke free. One of the worst places I have ever stayed. No wonder it was the only place in the area with an available room.

We had a handicapped room whose shower leaked clear through the bathroom. There were three bath towels two face clothes and no hand towels at all. No blow dryer, no coffee maker and enough flies to drive us crazy. Also being a handicap room toilet seat should have been higher, it was standard size. Will not return to this property!

The room a/c sounded like a jet engine,no trash can light above sink doesn’t work. No bulb,bathroom exhaust fan doesn’t work,toilet filled all the way to top before draining. Finally clogged. Was still clogged when I checked out. Room key card wouldn’t work when I left for a few hours then came back. Had to go to office and get it reprogrammed. All 3 days. No TV. And this is supposed to be a deluxe room. Also the sign outside says 59.99 per night and my price was over 100 per night. What a disappointment.

Nothing to rave about. Had to wait until 6:45 to check in. However, it was a very busy day weekend with activities in the area. Also key card didn’t work second day and was reprogrammed. Staff was friendly, bed comfortable, lots of shopping and restaurants close by. Cheapest I could find for the weekend. Don’t like giving $100 deposit up front when checking in. They said I’d get it back in 7-10 days after check out. Maybe this is normal now days?

Room wasnt ready when I arrived at 8 p.m. so have me a different type of room. Someone barged in the room around 11 p.m. because of the front desk giving them a key. Some sketchy things going on in and around the property in regard to some of the guests or people hanging around the property. Your typical lock and load motelsp tread carefully!
