Would not stay again
Cons:

Staff was not very professional and they forgot to give me my deposit. They never answer their calls. Seems like a lot of action in that area.

We’ve stayed at this location last year. It’s a nice place. We paid over $200 for a room. I understand it was a busy wee
Pros:

The location was good. The bed was actually comfortable. The pillows were also comfortable. Normally they are so bulky I have neck pain in the morning.

Cons:

The floors had garbage on it. There was a sunflower seed near the bed . (Not mine)
There was no hair dryer ( I understand people steal them) I needed the plastic out of the garbage can. There was still garbage at the bottom of the can . There was black mold in the bathroom next to the shower walls

Dont waste your money!
Pros:

The view was nice and there was a near by shopping center.

Cons:

The front door looked like it had previously been kicked in. The bed was more of a box spring than mattress. The bedding was more like rags. The bathroom door was falling apart and could barely shut. The curtains is the bedroom and bathroom were falling off. The towels smelled of cigarettes. The AC unit was so loud and made a whirling sound all night and vibrated the walls and floor.

Pros:

The location was good, the beds were comfortable, and the room was clean

Cons:

The room wasn't adjusted for 3 people, there was only one set of towels. We stayed 2 nights and they didn't bring a second set for us. Nor did they clean the room after our first night. I had to ask twice for the towels and extra toilet paper. Trash wasn't emptied and the liners were not tied correctly to keep the liners from falling in.
Not only that, I had to take the keys back to them to have them programmed for the second night. I found that out the hard way. My mom was feeling sick and I was trying to hurry and get her inside the room so she could lay down. I swiped that card like 20 times before I ran downstairs to the office. The young man was nice enough to quickly program the cards, and run back upstairs to get my mom in the room. That was a hassle to get those cards done in a hurry.

Pros:

Parking was in front of room.

Cons:

Upon checking into the room, I discovered that the bathroom was flooded, and water had spilled into the adjoining area. I informed the front desk clerk, whose name was Jonathan; however, he responded with extreme rudeness and disrespect toward my husband. While we were moving to a different room, he was yelling at us. When we arrived at the new room, I found the shower floor to be very dirty. Additionally, the manager abruptly closed the restroom door to begin cleaning. Based on these experiences, I would not recommend staying at this establishment.
