It was cheaper than other hotels but it wasn’t worth it. The lady worker was very very very rude. The room was dirty and
Pros:

The area had bunch of restaurants and shops.

Cons:

The front desk worker name Tanesha. Horrible customer service. She had a bad attitude. I had 20 min to check in and she told me to leave and come back while I had my stuff with me. My Ubar driver left so I had no where to go.

It’s ok until I had to take to the rude lady. As she stated the manager. Everybody isn’t meant to have power.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The property was nasty. I had to clean it myself and I use the towel to clean the floor. They charged me 65 dollars for the towel and the policy stated 5 dollars per towel and rags. The property manager was so rude not professional at all. So when I got rude back I was talking to someone else as I was getting off the phone and I said this a rude B so she called back to say because I cuss her out I had to leave. She was rude not to mention she a black lady. When I ask to speak to the India guy she say I’m the manager they can’t help you all I wanted was to talk to somebody that was professional to solve my problem.

worst hotel experience of my life.
Cons:

it was completely disgusting!! roaches crawled the walls from behind the tv. the hotel allowed no refunds, and wouldn't move us to a better room. there was moldy walls, and tile ripped from the shower walls, hair all in the floor, a disgusting mattress, and exposed wire in the bathroom ceiling. i had to shower in my sox because the cleanliness was unbearable. there were so many people walking around and being loud during ALL hours of the night, , i felt unsafe. and multiple people rummaging through their cars in the middle of the night.

I would suggest another stay along the highway if you need more quiet and rest.
Pros:

It was close to the highway and easy to get into and the staff was friendly.

Cons:

It was evident that some of the tenants either live on the property or have been there a while. The room next to me was exceptionally loud at 12:00 am and 2:30 am with the neighbor screaming and yelling, swearing and throwing something. His room showed evidence he was there long term. Incredibly ridiculous that this would be allowed.
