- SLShuhrat LatipovNov 8, 20251.0Room was full of the bugs, elevator not working. Bad experience
- AAAnne ArchieOct 31, 20255.0Great 👍
- CPCarrie PerezOct 7, 20255.0Very nice and clean
- JBJody BandyOct 5, 20252.0Rooms are fair. Main door was worn out and had a difficult time locking. Rooms seemed clean but worn. Hotel in need of renovations. Staff was extremely friendly, patient and helpful. Breakfast was good at first. Coffee machines began to have problems ran out of staples like creamer and cinnamon rolls.
- SAShannon AyrishOct 3, 20251.0My vehicle—and two others—were broken into during my stay. The manager never acknowledged the inconvenience or offered any assistance. The front desk attendant had to be persuaded to call the police, and I was told they don’t have access to view cameras at night. No one pulled footage, and the attendant said he wouldn’t go outside for his own safety. I’m now out $500 for a window, on top of the stress and lost time. Extremely disappointing service and zero sense of urgency or accountability. I won’t be returning and can’t recommend this location.
