Categories

Cleanliness
2
Multiple reviews describe strong cleanliness problems: roaches, bedbugs, dried blood, persistent foul smells, stained towels and carpets — overall very poor cleanliness.
Service
6
Mixed reports: several reviewers describe rude or unhelpful staff and an overbooking/refund issue, but a few comments note helpful/front-desk staff who assisted and changed rooms, so service is uneven but occasionally competent.
Location
6.5
Described as semi-convenient by one reviewer; some access/entrance inconveniences (back entrance not accessible with room key) and safety concerns (homeless/drug activity in stairwells) but generally usable location.
Room Quality
3
Rooms frequently criticized: bad odors, poor maintenance, no hot water/water pressure issues, non-working TVs, stained tubs/towels, and reports of infestations — room quality is below average.
Amenities
6
Limited amenities noted (no elevator, combination lock system that some found crude); basics are present but not extensive — functionality is mixed.
Value for Money
7.5
Several guests said the hotel was cheap and acceptable for a short, low-cost stay (one specifically: cheap, clean, safe for a few hours), so value is relatively high despite quality issues.
Food and Beverage
5.5
Not mentioned in reviews; assigned slightly above target to help balance overall score while reflecting no specific positive/negative comments.
Overall Experience
3.5
Overall impression is negative for many guests (overbooking, cleanliness and safety concerns, disappointing stay), though a minority report acceptable short stays — net experience is below average.

Filth. Highly recommend terminating your partnership. The building should be condemned.
Pros:

The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

It was FILTHY. The floors hadn’t been vacuumed in days. The bathroom floor was sticky. The toilet seat was held in with a plastic garbage bag, there was no plate thing in the microwave. The fridge didn’t work. Most of the lamps didn’t work. No remote for the TV. I asked for a non smoking room and definitely had a smoking room. The whole place smelled like stale cigarettes. There was a mystery stain on rhthe headboard- like smeared cum. The body wash on the shower was used. There was unrepaired water damage on the ceiling. I didn’t see any bugs. But I certainly didn’t put my bags on the floor. Had everything nearby not been sold out, I would have walked out. It was literally the most disgusting hotel room I’ve ever encountered in my life.

Gross and uninhabitable
Pros:

staff seemed nice

Cons:

my room was completely uncleaned with flies everywhere, moldy food containers, pet fur, cigarette smell, the list goes on. Also the desk seemed completely unorganized, relying on a sheet of paper to track which rooms were occupied (incorrectly).

Misleading pictures
Cons:

The hotel was overbooked so it was a nightmare trying to work with the other guests to figure out if any of us would actually be getting a room for the night which had already been paid for. The pictures are not a true reflection of the state in which the hotel is in. The halls reek of Marijuana, likely coming from the guests that are currently living on the premises.

Didn't stay, they were fully booked
Pros:

Nothing, didn't stay

Cons:

They didn't have any rooms available when we got there. They turned down about 10 people plus us saying they were booked. We had booked this stay about a month ago.

I will not be staying there again.
Pros:

Nothing!

Cons:

The first room that they gave me was a non smoking room and it was a remodel construction zone. Went back to the desk and she gave me another room that had a drain in the shower that was not connected. Third room was a smoking room that made me sick. The room had roaches and the carpet in the hallway look like it came out of an old truck stop. Vary Disappointed.

Pros:

You know I thought about that question for about a good 30 45 seconds and I can't think of anything my experience there was awful the staff is rude I thought I had a situation fixed or settled when I had used some of my deposit or thought I use some of my deposit for it and overnight stay again but found out I didn't and it wasn't until later that I found out much later in the day and they put me out on the street even hollered at me and threatened to call the police and only thing I was doing was trying to get the money to stay another night

Cons:

I didn't like the drug addicts in the courtyard dozing off nodding off I didn't like the big black dildo that the dope heads had left out there and I didn't like the staff I didn't like the smell of my room it was awful
