Categories

Cleanliness
3
Many reviews report severe cleanliness problems: feces and urine on floors/walls, dirty tubs, mildew smell, stains, hair on towels and sightings of roaches. Overall very poor hygiene standards.
Service
7.7
Mixed service: several guests describe staff as kind and accommodating and helpful with requests, while others note very basic/front-window check-in and limited front-desk services. Generally responsive but minimal.
Location
7.7
Convenient for errands and transit for many guests (near Walmart, bus stop, accessible to downtown), but some reviews raise safety concerns about the immediate neighborhood (vagrants/crackheads, noisy parking lot).
Room Quality
6.6
Rooms are described as spacious with comfortable beds by several guests, but many report outdated rooms, stained bathtubs, cracked tiles, broken refrigerators/jacuzzis and intermittent AC/TV issues.
Amenities
5.8
Amenities are inconsistent: multiple reports of the pool filled/closed and nonfunctional laundry, limited or no Wi‑Fi in some stays and broken jacuzzi/mini-fridge in rooms; some working TVs and AC were noted.
Value for Money
6.5
Mixed value: some guests found the price acceptable for location and basics, others felt it was too expensive given the maintenance and cleanliness issues. Slightly above average mainly due to low base rates.
Food and Beverage
5.4
Breakfast offerings are frequently described as minimal or disappointing (banana, pastries, muffin, juice) and sometimes not available despite being advertised.
Overall Experience
6.1
Overall mixed-to-negative: severe cleanliness and maintenance problems and neighborhood safety issues weighed down stays, while convenience, bed comfort and occasional helpful staff kept the aggregate experience around the target rating.
