8/10 Very good

Had no hot water, but was a good place

The hotel itself was great. The only issue was I had no hot water in my room all 3 days. Biggest problem. Nice area. Amenities were good. Water was bad

The sheets, pillows, and carpets were terribly dirty, as was a terrible smell in the elevator.
José, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The hotel is currently under renovation. A lot of painting and maintenance is being done. In my room the carpet was dirty and stained. The couch was dirty and stained. The bathroom was clean and the bed was comfortable. There were roaches in the dresser cabinet. The breakfast was adequate but not great. Asked to check in 15 minutes early and was told it would be $30 extra.

4/10 Fair

Great potential! But in reconstructive stages ! Air didn’t work in living room and the carpet is disgustingly dirty sticky and stained ! POOL CLOSED INDOOR AND OUT Reallly need a DEEP CLEANING
Marcellin, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

I just wished the breakfast options each morning would have changed up a bit. At least add bacon, REAL orange juice and not Sunny D and freanch toast sticks. But front desk staff was amazing and available when I needed them. Rooms condition was worse than the pictures online and walls were filthy, had to ask to get a table or something clean by the front desk as cleaning staff was just chatting away.
Latisha, 4-night trip

Rooms was filthy. Paid for a king suite and I was showed 4 rooms that was absolutely disgusting. Bedroom door broken, stains on couch and chair, blood stains on carpet.

DO NOT STAY HERE. THEIR PICTURES ARE AN ILLUSION

I was expecting so much more from the website, until i got there and was greeted by a rude young lady at the front desk. There is a $100 incidental charged (per room) in case you decide to steal those paper thin curtains. We then proceed to our room and on the way we see holes in the ceiling near the lobby, we see buckets set up to catch water and the place reeked of mold. We get to our rooms and the rooms weren't clean. We found lashes on the side of the nightstand, earrings on the floor, red stains in the carpet, hair on the bathroom floor and again, the room reeked of mold. I went to the front desk to speak with management, but of course she wasn't there. I called guest relations and was told the complaint would be escalated. We had to book a room elsewhere due to me being allergic to mold. So i am now out of almost $1k on hotel charges. And they are refusing to refund my money although i did not stay here at this filthy hotel. This case has been escalated 5 times and still have not been refunded.

Joshua, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The pricing is good it used to be a different hotel. It is dated and could use some TLC but it was fine for one night.
Bliss, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The first room that we booked there were nats flying the curtain had food waste..I went downstairs. The receptionist inspected the room and gave us another room..there were no face towels no Kleenex there were dirty bath towels hung up no remote..room was in unfair condition I would not recommend this hotel stay .
Kashera, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Issa No for me

When I say don’t stay here I mean DONT ! The rooms were disgusting and smelled of old outside urine, stains everywhere and on everything I could not stay here I canceled and booked somewhere else Lets add the random crackhead that came in put his feet up in the lobby then casually laid out on the floor while eating watermelon I honestly would not recommend the online pictures are very deceiving
Tyshawn, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible

When we arrived I had to use the restroom but was told it was for employees only. So I had to check in while needing to pee badly. Second the AC was horrible, room was hot. The carpets were badly stained and there was a live roach in the bed. Never will stay here again!!!
Nerissa, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The property was far from the condition in the photos. The pictures were old and led about the condition of the hotel and ground. It was absolutely disgusting and you could smell the mold. There were multiple locations in the hotel marked off with caution tape leaking water and visibly moldy. We didn't stay and never got a refund for the room.

Christine, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

When we got there there was no rooms available I already had paid for the rooms and then they was charging my card over and over again. No towels, no hot water, terrible customer service. Please don't stay at this bug down hotel.
Stacy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Parking is convenient. Great restaurant next door that serves wonderful Brunch as well as lunch/dinner. Also a Wffle House and Dennys less than a mile away. Plenty of convenient stores. The hotel is not five star. You get what you pay for. It’s clean enough for me. I didn’t see anything wrong with the cleanliness. Old yes and shabby. The King suite is huge and the room is separated, they need to purchase new TVs but I don’t go to the hotel to watch the Telly.
