Disappointed.
Pros:

The property was close to my home and convenient at the time. (Jun 15, 2026 was the date of my stay)

Cons:

No. The person at the front counter was a bit curt and rude. I purchased the room through Booking.com, paid with the exact same card I have used at several other properties and bookings. When I get there she wanted another card to pay with, as I was paying with Chime Bank and they’ve had issues with refunds through Chime. I informed her I wasn’t sure how to proceed as that and my credit card was through the same bank. I didn’t have another card. She rolled her eyes and said she wasn’t sure she could proceed with the booking. I was trying to use a Visa.
My home was unsafe as there was someone staying there who has assaulted me and committed domestic violence against myself and my son. I left to avoid any issues and stay at a local hotel. This woman was about to cancel my entire reservation because she thought my bank was ‘inconvenient’ if I chose to ask for a refund in the future. Essentially, to same my reservation, I had to promise I wouldn’t request a refund. What kind of policy is this? I paid with a visa. I had plenty of money, the app had approved and collected my payment. There was a physical safety issue preventing me from going home.
I will never choose to stay there again. I had been crying for hours dealing with the entire family situation, and after this woman made me feel small and uncomfortable, I continued crying over the stress of the situation in my room. So I paid $140 for a single night in a local 3 star hotel, only to be spoken to disrespectfully and made to feel small and insignificant because of THE BANK MY DEBIT AND CREDIT CARD ACCOUNT was from. Not that I didn’t have money, not that I was rude to her, or caused any issues in the hotel. I wasn’t disrupting anyone. I was quietly stepping away from an unsafe and stressful legal situation for a brief reprieve.

So yes. That was my experience. I’ll never stay there again and it’s less than 10 miles from my home.
