It’s a nice place but not perfect yet.
Pros:

The place is nice but needs people who care more about the look of the rooms.

Cons:

The care of the bathroom. My wife had to scrub the tub before she would go in it.

The hotel was absolutely disgusting and ridiculous!
Pros:

What I saw online.

Cons:

They had roaches, beds smelt like urine, I had to change several times and still got roaches in my room. They are not cleaning these sheets. They smelt like piss! There spots on the pillows! They kept putting in a room in the back and I felt unsafe because I was by myself! Absolutely ridiculous! I was appalled! I was absolutely disgusted!! I had to go to the hotel next door because your hotel rooms were soooo bad!! And I couldn’t get a refund!

My room was visibly clean but I was not comfortable. The mattress seemed to have a lump in it. So I could not get comfor
Pros:

Location and price

Cons:

The room was old had a musty smell. It was also an adjoining door and someone knocked on the adjoining door. I was fearful after that. I was down at the end of the building. I was a single female. I didn’t feel safe. Nor was I comfortable.
