Cleanliness
7.5
Mixed reports: several guests explicitly said rooms were clean and beds comfortable, laundry service praised; however, a few reviews reported very dirty rooms and water issues. Overall leans slightly positive but inconsistent.
Service
9
Consistently positive comments about staff being helpful, friendly, responsive and accommodating (pet requests, quick responses to concerns). Service is a clear strength in reviews.
Location
4
Mostly negative: poor signage, hard/awkward access, surrounding empty lots and blocked roads, reports of unsavory people and a rough parking lot; a few noted convenience to shopping/restaurants but overall location is problematic.
Room Quality
5
Rooms described as dated and not matching website photos; some rooms partially remodeled with new flooring and paint but others under renovation or in poor repair. Comfort (beds) noted positively in several reviews.
Amenities
7
Amenities present and functional for many guests: pool (small), microwave and mini-fridge, laundry service praised. Some negatives: ice machine broken, limited/grab-and-go breakfast currently.
Value for Money
4
Several guests felt the price did not match condition (complaints about being charged more than at-property rates and rooms not matching photos). Value is judged below average.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Limited mention: breakfast is currently grab-and-go and some wanted more options (meat); not a major focus but service adequate for what is offered.
Overall Experience
8.2
Mixed stays overall: many guests appreciated friendly staff, clean rooms and basic amenities which made stays acceptable, while others were put off by construction, appearance, and location. Overall skews positive primarily due to strong service and functioning amenities.

Not What Website Shows
Pros:

Checking in was pleasant.

Cons:

If the website had indicated they were under construction I wouldn't have booked. The property itself looked in very ruff shape, building definitely needs repairs, rooms shown on website did not reflect rooms true condition. Rooms are very dated did not look like pictures. The room was clean & bed comfortable. Somehow the entry onto the property hotel entrance needs to be made more inviting.
