Very disrespectful to me when I asked about breakfast..( they show it in their pictures of the dining area, they have no room service.. noise levels from prostitution and drug dealers kept me vigilant most of the night. Parking lot and walkways covered in refuse from drinking and drugs.. This is the absolute worst place that I've stayed in... The cost of the room is higher than the Baymont downtown. I will never again stay here. I Wish I had gotten the Baymont

Reserve the hotel because it had a pool.Pool was not even open. They no longer serve breakfast because of vendors. Maybe they should find new vendors? There is no coffee in the rooms not every room has a microwave so you can't heat up leftovers if you're hungry. Beds are a bit hard and if you move to turn and try to get comfortable you hear a metal squeaking under the bed or popping..

Not very clean!!
When we got our keys we checked out the rooms before brining out stuff in. There was a stain that looked like blood on the bed cover and a couple places on the wall. We went and told the front desk and they said that would just come change the cover because the room was just cleaned that morning and then didn’t understand the problem. I will not be back to this hotel. Ever.

Hot rooms
It was 80 degrees the whole time. We informed the front desk and informed us that it was a new AC unit so it might not be working properly. Then 5 minutes later the man guy came in without knocking and took an old AC unit from our room and replaced it with a new one. we left for a couple hours, and came back, it was really hot still. Mentioned it again to the front desk and he said it’s because it was hot outside it wouldn’t cool off in the room until dark. it was miserable.
