Cleanliness
6.2
Mixed reports: one guest said the room was 'spotless,' but multiple others reported mold on the shower curtain, damp/musty smells, bedding/towels feeling damp and a general sense that rooms didn't feel clean.
Service
7.8
Mixed service: several mentions of friendly/helpful front-desk staff, but also an instance of a receptionist shrugging off a canceled reservation, staff playing loud videos at breakfast, and reports of not returning a left tablet.
Location
8.8
Generally positive: multiple guests called the location 'decent' or 'convenient' and cited location and price as reasons for staying.
Room Quality
6.4
Multiple room problems reported: very stiff/uncomfortable beds, loud and ineffective A/C, thin/ineffective shades and bright parking-lot lights, damp/musty rooms and the need to empty buckets under A/C units; a few guests noted large/spacious rooms.
Amenities
8
Breakfast amenities are strong and frequently praised; however, some functional issues noted (lack of bathroom ventilation, reported bathroom problems and extra charges for early check-in).
Value for Money
8.4
Mixed perception: some guests felt the property was overpriced for the issues experienced (extra charges, cleanliness and comfort problems), while others accepted the price given location and amenities.
Food and Beverage
9
Strong positive sentiment for breakfast: several guests praised a great breakfast with many options and good protein choices; one guest noted their husband 'loved the breakfast.'
Overall Experience
7.8
Overall mixed stay: friendly staff and very positive breakfast experiences offset by significant negatives — booking cancellation with poor front-desk handling, sleep-disrupting noise and light, cleanliness and room comfort issues.

Cons:

Booked a room for the night and when I arrived at the hotel they had cancelled my reservation without any notice. My family and I had to scramble to find a place for the night. Instead of trying to help, the receptionist just shrugged her shoulders and said, "there is nothing we can do".

Decent location, poor service
Pros:

Large room. Decent location

Cons:

External door to parking lot next to room was consistently slammed shut from 5am preventing being able to sleep.
At breakfast, staff played very loud videos on a cell phone (TikTok?).
The room didn’t feel clean.

Not a bad stay.
Pros:

The staff was friendly and lovely to chat with! The breakfast was great! Lots of options and great protien choices! My room was spacious I made great use of the desk to study and do work! Overall good time!

Cons:

The only few complaints I do have is one the bed was very stiff and uncomfortable. For the price I paid it was like sleeping on the floor. There was also mold on the bottom of the shower curtain. Would do wonders to have a ventilation fan in the bathroom to help with moisture!

Pros:

Nothing really

Cons:

Having to empty a bucket under the air conditioner so water wouldn't be all over the floor you figure for the price it would be a little nicer

Terrible if you want to sleep
Pros:

Convenient location. Staff was friendly, but didn't seem to care about the lack of sleep I got there.

Cons:

The "shade" was a joke and there is a parking lot light outside our window. The first pic shows how bright our room was at 12:45am, second pic is the parking lot light at 12:45am, third pic at 9am shows how sheer the shade is. Too bright to sleep after sunrise and the windows on the front of the hotel face east. A/C never cooled room enough.
