Overall we were happy with our stay. But I did find it strange and inconvenient that we had to leave a $50 cash deposit upon checking in and had to have a room inspection before checking out to get the deposit back.

It was affordable and average. Wasn't expecting anything fancy, and didn't get anything fancy in return. Was a bit sad the continental breakfast has been discontinued permanently and this was not updated on Expedia. Room did smell pretty strongly of weed so if you have a weak nose be aware.

Room was dirty, I did not want to take my shoes off. The lobby was extremely hot and person at desk spoke limited English. There is no airport shuttle as advertised. The area was sketchy with working women out and about. Awkward full sized fridge in room. The Breakfast that was offered, was dry cereal and water.

One of the worst properties I’ve ever stayed at honestly … service is bad … breakfast is bad … room was bad … the room I stayed at (103) had plugs hanging out the walls , cabinets were broken … doors were Al colored on with random paint and there was a fruit fly infestation I told the guy who was in the front desk if I could change rooms and he denied and was also so unprofessional and kept saying the rooms didn’t have bugs even though I showed him…
