Pros:

Not a good experience. Check in was fine (courteous, quick process) but it goes downhill from there. Exterior doors meant to be accessed by guest room keycards for safety not operational. Anyone can walk in. The hallways had a terrible mold smell and dehumidifier running. Strange smell in our room, along with stained sheets. I brought my computer bag with me to keep locked in the car (I got that kind of vibe from this place). We were there for Syracuse parents weekend and booked late. This was one of very few options available. Wish we had chosen differently.

Wow. Maybe the worst hotel I’ve stayed in.
Pros:

Room smelled like mold and pot. Front desk claimed they could not switch rooms because they were sold out. Not enough cars in parking lot or observable evidence to support this claim.

Sheets were dirty and smelled like vomit

Probably has bed bugs so we are careful about quarantining our clothes

Pros:

If you just need a place to sleep, this is the place. The room feels like it’s stuck in the late 90’s.

Pros:

The staff was nice and proficient. The room was ok but the floor was sticky with soap residue. The door needed to be muscled to close properly. The outdoor side doors did not have active lock functions

Pros:

Hello this is my first and last time staying at a suburban studios hotel. First the rating is not for the staff the front desk lady was very helpful and needs a raise. Second I would not be surprise if the next pandemic starts at this hotel. This hotel makes us not a 3rd world nation but a 5th world nation if there was such a thing. As well Chevy should change the name of their suburbans because this hotel makes the name suburban negative. First I had to wait of 45 mins to check in because a problem with getting my room ready. Second the hallways smell like a disease is forming in the hotel. I rather smell a swamp durning low tide then that hallway.
Marks on walls sink etc as you see from this picture. I should not have to pay for this overnight stay. If the hotel was normal and clean I would but if I don't come out with a 6th toe then god is on my side. If management or choice hotels would like to reach out to me they can and I will gladly talk to them.
Do your self a favor get a thrash bag and use it as a tent and sleep In the parking lot it's prob cleaner

Pros:

Room we stayed in had new flooring and furniture, which was nice. But the facility itself is definitely not well maintained or in great condition, kinda run down quality. Pricing for a room should be significantly less for the condition of the place.

Disappointing
Pros:

The lobby was nice, check in was good and quick. The property was in disrepair. Upon pulling up to the entrance closest to our room there were several people with small bbq grills outside on the sidewalk. One had an electrical cord extending back into the hotel entrance which did not allow the entrqnce door to close. The door handles to the entrace were broken and when we returned in the evening they were not locked. The hallway carpet was dirty and smelled musty. The room has a nice new floor but also smelled musty. The bed was clean but the bathroom tub had a large pink stain on the tub and the curtain. There was hair in the tub. The air conditioner, despite being set at 60 was not working properly so it was warm in the room. The door to the room had a large gap which illuminated the room at night (from hallway light) and provided no sound barrier from folks in the hallway or next room. We had to put the blanket down to block the gap in the door, to be able to sleep.
