Pros:

Everything was great, besides the fact you cannot get the water in the shower hot what so ever. Nothing like a cold shower after work

Pros:

“Suite” yet no dish soap? Not nearly enough utensils and plates. Had to run dishwasher after every meal? Ridiculous
Clean dishes being in dishwasher was weird. Why weren’t they in the storage shelves?
Plastic cups by microwave. Tacky and low budget
Ac unit makes clicking / tapping sound all night
Hand held shower doesn’t work. I was recovering from a surgery and booked this room specifically for a removable shower head that I was unable to use.
Low water pressure on the normal shower head. Probably worst I have ever seen in a hotel.
Shampoo provided, but no conditioner? Even asked the front desk who suggested I go to the store and buy some? It was Thanksgiving. No stores were open.
Could hear ding from elevator all night
Severeal dirty / used tissues under bed, back left corner.
No coffee in the morning as the machine was broken. Had a three hour drive.
No towels in the exercise room? Wiped my sweat with a crunchy paper towel. Low budget
No live tv, only Lg apps?
Front staff was not very friendly. She made sure to finish on her phone before looking up and moving to desk to assist me.

Pros:

This place is awesome and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I was very happy and surprised beyond what I expected. You have a small stove, sink microwave and refrigerator. Location is great near many shopping needs and wants. I stay 11 days and loved my stay. Laundry and small gym as well. Highly recommend and worth the money.

Pros:

Everything about this hotel is super cheap - except the price...
ROOM - no closet, comforter, iron, hair dryer, safe, carpet.
BUILDING - no breakfast, pool, or even a real lobby. ONE elevator.
STAFF - generally well-meaning but not given the proper tools or training to do their job. Window in room left open; room was 48 degrees upon arrival. One check-in station; average of ten minutes per customer.

Pros:

This hotel is brand new. The people working there were exceptionally nice. It was clean and quiet. The only downside was they were still doing some last-minute construction, making it a bit noisy during the day.

Pros:

It was clean, we just did not have to interact with the staff too much so I could not honestly give an answer. We assumed the kitchen included pots and pans, and the heating element (stove top) was not the best; it took a long time to heat up water. But aside from that, we would definitely stay again, just will be better prepared with equipment.

Pros:

The absolute BEST hotel I’ve ever stayed at and I’m not exaggerating. It felt brand new inside and even smelt brand new. The rooms were spacious and felt so clean like I was back at home. The laundry room were impeccable, pricey, but worth it. Any time I travel now I will be searching for LivAway because of my experience here. I highly recommend this hotel
