Categories

Cleanliness
2.5
Multiple reviews cite cigarette smell, blood in the tub, cigarette burns on sheets/floors, nasty/fridge, brown substance on bathroom wall, clogged toilet and generally unclean rooms — overall very poor cleanliness.
Service
7
Mixed reports: several reviewers describe rude front-desk interactions, hang-ups, refusal/theft claims, but at least one review specifically praises staff as helpful and understanding during hardship. Service appears inconsistent; some helpful staff interactions raise the score above average.
Location
9
Consistently praised for proximity to restaurants, mall and jobs; fast delivery access. However, several reviewers note the neighborhood is sketchy and there are safety concerns — high convenience despite safety caveats.
Room Quality
3
Rooms reported as run-down: hard pillows, missing batteries in smoke detectors, no shampoo, filthy conditions, and evidence of long-term residents impacting room quality — generally poor.
Amenities
5.5
Amenities are lacking in places (no pots/pans/utensils, no shampoo, missing smoke-detector battery). Some basic, but limited, offerings — below average but not entirely absent.
Value for Money
8.3
Several guests describe the property as affordable or decent for the price; despite issues, many feel pricing reflects the level of accommodation — overall good value for budget travelers.
Food and Beverage
6.2
Not discussed as an on-site service in reviews; nearby restaurants and fast delivery are highlighted. Assigned target overall rating due to lack of explicit discussion.
Overall Experience
8.1
Mixed overall: strong positives for location and affordability and isolated reports of helpful staff balanced against serious cleanliness and safety concerns. On balance guests find the stay acceptable for the price and location, though with important caveats.
