Before charging me extra fees it would have been nice to know the rules about pets. This is not a pet friendly hotel I was called because my dog was barking. Every pet friendly note has barking dogs so I had to leave my event to come to the hotel

This is the third time I've stayed at this SureStay, and first time I've encountered any major issue. First of all, I'd say if you are on a budget and want a comfortable place this should be one to consider. However, my main issue was that they did not take security serious. I was there 5 days, usually ask for cleaning services every second day. Well, they came and cleaned my room after the 2nd night, but left my door unlocked. I don't know if mgmt has instructed cleaning staff on what to do when their keys cannot lock a door, but when I went up to my room after the cleaning the staff had gone but my door was unlocked. When he came back I showed him this, and he showed me that his key was malfunctioning. My polite response was that he should have gotten help immediately and returned to lock it. After that, I turned down every other cleaning request. In the process I also discovered that the room telephone didn't work. We all sign a disclosure of how items left in the room are left at the owner's risk, but that doesn't hold water if even the room cannot be secured. Nothing was stolen thankfully. Also, the breakfast is tepid. Both times I tried it the eggs, potatoes and sausage were not warm. Staff are pleasant, but the young woman I told my concern to didn't really seem to interested. Please do better.

This was the best hotel I stayed at on my road trip between Boston and Houston. And it was one of the most affordable. The staff was absolutely stellar and put a smile on our face. The lobby is gorgeous and I was taking pictures of the murals etc. like a tourist. The hot breakfast was delicious; omelets and sausage and gravy! Amazing chandelier and flowers in the dining area. The gazebo has an outdoor sink and grille, and beautiful outdoor lighting. The furniture in the rooms is modern and I want every piece for my apartment lol, complete with a cool sliding barn door. Hands down best hotel I've stayed in for this price; you will feel like you're at a 5 star hotel.

A little disappointed after seeing other reviews prior to our stay. Hotel needs a refresher and updating. Bed frames were squeaky, room needs repainted, beds are too small (has ample room for queensize), housekeeping had mints on bed with a Welcome note which had sugar ants all over it. When staff was tikd of issue, the response was "Oops, sorry!" ans nothing more. We just pulled off the comforter and threw it in the corner since there weren't any bugs on any of the rest of the bedding. Not a horrible experience but will likely stay elsewhere next time.

When we went to check in the staff would not get off the phone. Took almost ten minutes before she would talk to us. The pictures are very deceiving. The check in and dining area are nice. The room is not. The bathtub/shower was nasty. The mattress was awful. It was a very old spring mattress on a metal box. The room had a smell to it. The couch sunk in when you set on it. The toilet seat wouldnt stay up when you use it. We will not be staying here again.

A good location is essential for a positive university experience and this hotel certainly has that. The on-site breakfast is also a great convenience for students. However, the overall condition of the hotel leaves something to be desired. The rooms could definitely use some updating to improve the overall experience for guests.
