- LWLeah WeaverNov 15, 20254.0Only issus is the tv needs to be newer and bigger. Hard to watch a football game on it. I think my husband's laptop monitor is bigger. And the channels dont match the description. Great location!!!! Will definitely book again if back in this area.
- TWterry wisdomNov 5, 20253.0The room was ok but could have been nicer The service was ok Atmosphere not great smelled
- RMRenee MicheleOct 22, 20255.0Fantastic staff. These people are the friendliest and really made us feel at home and like they cared. Rooms could use an update and humidity is a bit of an issue. Breakfast staff is very attentive and also do an amazing job keeping up with food demands. Currently lots of construction near hotel and getting there is a bit of a challenge.
- AJAdolis JimenezOct 15, 20255.0Absolutely loved my stay. I did have a couple of things I was unsatisfied with but Ahmed was super duper helpful and went above and beyond to help me during my stay. All the employees are lovely and ready to serve with a smile. The complimentary breakfast had such a wide selection, I was surprised they had my favorite oikos yogurt ! The gym was small but it had everything you needed for a basic work out and no ones ever in there so I loved having the whole gym to myself. You do have to let them know ahead of time that you want to use the jacuzzi or it will be cold and takes 15-25 minutes to heat up. There’s a laundry room which was very useful during my stay. My only gripe is that the TVs are way too small and outdated , I was not able to plug in my console for video games. And the cable selection is very limited. No Comedy Central which is what I mainly watch. All in all, I definitely recommend coming back.
- PFPaul FortmayerOct 14, 20252.0Stayed here Oct 4 - 6 2025. First off. The building is surrounded by major construction. On the weekends no noise but on Monday morning 730am it woke us up. The worst part about our room was the really bad mildew smell. It actually made my girlfriend nauseous. She is more sensitive than I am. My throat would just get scratchy amd my eyes would itch. The door to our room was extremely difficult to open and close. To open, it took a couple should and hip hits ... to close, we would have to pull so hard the door handle was bending. Inside the room, you can see where a much larger flat screen TV ise to be mounted on the wall but was missing. Instead we had a 24 inch TV just sitting on top the desk. It was NOT a smart TV. Only had 6 local channels to pick from. Parking lot here is very small. Maybe 20 cars. Otherwise it is street parking (and good luck with the construction because many areas are blocked off). There is a pay lot across the street. Once we got a parking spot in the lot, we left the vehicle and just walked or took a Lyft I travel quite a bit each year and it takes a lot for me to post reviews. I WILL NOT BE STAYING HERE AGAIN. Hope this helps 🙏
