"The people were kind and I appreciate it, unfortunately that’s the only thing that would good about this place. There were bugs everywhere, wherever you looked you’d see a bug of some kind. It was extremely dirty, it was not cleaned and our sheets were stained. There where so many roaches. Whenever I opened the bathroom door there were five I would kill on the counter and baby ones that lined the shower curtain. This happened multiple times a day. There were ants that were also everywhere in the bathroom and crawling all up and down the shower curtain along with tiny baby cockroaches. I had to plug up the drains with towels to stop the roaches from coming in. Which only worked a little bit. It stinks like a porta potty all throughout the hotel. Sleeping in the bed made my whole body and head itch like crazy the whole time I was there. The microwave had no plate in it and it was hard to heat up our food. The AC didn’t really work. Another thing is I was reading the reviews to see if I was the only one experiencing this and I’ve seen multiple responses to people’s valid upset and talking about their bad experiences at the hotel where the owner is very mean to them and says things like “I wish you had left at check out” “well put you on a do not rent to list because of your review” instead of talking accountability and responsibility and fixing the issues. That’s so rude and unprofessional and I hate seeing that. It just needs to be properly maintained and cleaned and it’s not."
"Clean, quiet, spacious rooms. In room amenities were convenient for longer stays. Good value especially considering all of the in room amenities. Staff were polite and helpful."
"Clean, quiet rooms. Good value for the price. Staff were polite and professional. Cafe hours accommodate early morning travelers (opens at 6am). And of course the warm chocolate chip cookies are always great!"
"I was not able to stay there when I arrived at the place their security said that there was no one to check us in they would be back in 2 hours. As I was going to contact you the front desk lady arrived from outside just getting to work. She said they had no rooms available then changed the story to that I would have to pay $100 extra. So I left the hotel. Bad service. Didn’t want to work with or even try to help out. "
