rude staff, nasty room, they keep your deposit!
Pros:

nothing good about this property. they’re scammers.

Cons:

it was dirty disgusting had roaches. front desk was extremely rude. the entire place smelled like cigarettes. they had me write down my credit card number to refund the deposit that they never refunded. i ended up paying 100$ for the trashiest room i’ve ever seen, left it better then i found it and still never got my deposit back.

Wouldn't go back
Cons:

The room was in terrible condition. It took the ac hours to cool down the room. The hallways were hot and humid. They didn't have wash towels. Room had a roach infested smell but we didn't see any bugs thank God.
