Very strange place. Not very comfortable. Property is run down. Check in, key app is very cumbersome. The staff on site was nice but overall the experience was not a good one. Will not be returning.
Parking was in a shared lot. The pics are deceiving. We tried to get a refund but was told no. The entire experience was horrible. The ac did not work and the hotel staff did nothing to fix it. We asked about another room and was told they were all the same. I would not recommend this hotel. We ended up just leaving and going to the Hilton.
I booked through Expedia and the hotel didn’t send me door codes. There’s no staff on site so I had a hard time getting in the building. I had to call a remote number but the guy who answered did get me my door codes after I downloaded a third party app. All in all, gaining access and checking in was more difficult than it should be.
Rooms are spartan (like a dorm) but clean. There was a hole punched in one wall from a previous guest. No USB ports in the room. No electrical outlets near the bed for overnight device charging.
No in room coffee. But worse than that: no coffee at all in the common area at 6:30 on a weekday morning! Nothing was open nearby. I had to walk down the street for coffee. With the road construction, I actually had to walk in the busy street for part of a block. Fortunately a Chick Fil A was open in a Children’s Hospital five or six blocks away.
I definitely will never stay here again.
Convenient location near medical center. That’s the only positive. I did leave a tip for housekeeping because I suspect that this is a challenging place for them to work.
If you can avoid this hotel, i suggest you do. The staff are very unhelpful they don't even have a phone to reach the lobby. You can hear the room next doors people breathing 😑, lets not mention if your phone run out of battery during night time.There's no way you could enter the building with out the app .
Id rather stay in a
I travel a lot. This hotels staff is rude. The hotel is under construction and is dirty. Do not the photos fool you this place isn't somewhere you want to stay.
This is a self service hotel
I wish I would have known this in Expedia
They did not tell me on website
No lobby, one 1 staff Handing everything, no phones in room no clocks in rooms, zero keys. Very minimal no frills hotel. No one at desk during the night
I’ve stayed up n hotels with remote concierge, and I don’t like them. That information should be required to be posted prior to the reservation. To start, immediately had a fender bender in the parking lot. Lot is not clearly marked and shared with several other business. An elderly woman stopped her car in the drive as I was pulling in.
Next, the entrance is not clearly marked. But, we finally found it, there was no way in because you aren’t sent the code until check in. Fine, but early check in is clearly an option with a $40 fee. We found the very nice young man in charge outside who let us in and had our room cleaned early-for which we were grateful. Did I mention check in is at 4 and not 3 as with most standard hotels?
Upon walking into the lobby the smell of gas or sewer overpowered us! The sweet kid told us it was coming from the adjoining restaurant and it would smell that way upstairs. We powered through and went up to find our room which was tied with very thin walls to three other rooms and a lobby that had clearly been vandalized. Paintings missing, chips on the walls, and tons of warning signs about smoking and noise.
Our room was decorated with two posters that were done by teenagers with $10 Walmart frames. Literally. $10 Walmart frames full of stickers.
One plastic desk, one chair and two beds. Outlets don’t work in the bathroom. No additional mirrors, no coffee pot, no fridge, etc.
No rugs. Concrete floors.
Bathroom was equivalent to a locker Room.

You ask about staff, what staff? The bar was empty! The shelves were empty, just a bunch of junk sitting around in what was the bar area. The bed was awful, wasn’t a top sheet, the mattress wasn’t even straight on frame. The room was BOTTOM of the line!!! It was a totally no Frills room. Very glad I didn’t book directly and pay that price, would sure to be asking for refund. The check in proteas a nightmare. Nothing worked as it should, everything had a delayed response and when I called for help, I was treated as if I was too dumb to follow instructions and so it was my fault for the difficulty.

Because we booked through Hotels.com, the check-in process was terrible. I never received an email to get my contactless check-in setup so then it took 25 minutes for me to get in touch with someone and an email to check-in then it took another 25 minutes for the system to generate my keys. The bed was very comfortable, but the room and amenities overall were lacking.

Toilet paper roll hanging off the wall. Light fixture about to fall down from ceiling. Literally 0 sound barrier between rooms and hall. Very loud

This was a very odd experience. Unlike any hotel I have ever stayed at. There was NO staff. I received an email with a code to get into the room, but no instructions. Just a room number and a code. And no instructions on how to get into the hotel itself. Had to call a phone number posted outside and get talked through. There is an app to download, then you have to enter a confirmation number. You can only share this with one person, so if you hav more than two people staying in the room, they won’t be able to get into the hotel without you.
The room itself was large, clean and beds were comfortable. But no frills. Very sparse. No extra towels, blankets or pillows. No fridge. The hotel itself had zero amenities. No bar, ice machines or vending machines. And again - no staff. If they have any of these items (extra pillows or blankets for example) there is no one present to get them for you.
Air garage is NOT a garage. It is a parking lot. It was icing and snowing and I thought my car would be covered…in a garage!! Hotel is very dark and creepy when arriving at night. Convenience room for guests is on the 4th floor. When we got to the floor it was so dark we had to use a flashlight, walk to the very end of the corridor and when we turned on the lights, there was a guy sitting at the furthest table IN THE DARK! Again, very creepy! There’s artwork on the walls of each floor, some are of skulls and dark themed art. Just not a welcoming feeling of safety when visiting it alone as a female for the first time. Room was clean though.
The heater in my room wasn’t working. All night it was set at 80 but it never went higher than 66 degrees, initially as low as 62. There were no staff on site so no one could come out and look at it, no other rooms available to move to, and no one to bring extra blankets. My lamp didn’t even have a bulb so I couldn’t turn the lights off without getting out of the bed.

The room was very clean . The bathroom was breathtaking and my stay was amazing. I will be back next time
The room was clean, but there was only one roll of toilet paper. I’m glad we didn’t run out! The gentleman I spoke with on the phone to check in and out was very helpful. Check in went smoothly because I went ahead and downloaded the GOKI app. The Hotel was in a good location; about 20 minutes from anything we wanted to visit while we were in town. We had the corner king, and it was worth the small splurge for sure. But, there isn’t any staff, so if you do need anything like extra towels etc. you kind of have to make do. It’s next door to a ramen restaurant, Wabi House. It was wonderful but it does get busy for dinner, so we went with lunch instead. If you dine there you get 4 free hours of parking. The parking lot is paid for through air garage, (there is an app for that as well) you can pay a flat rate for the amount of time you’re there, with in and out privileges.
Totally disappointing! Hardly any electrical plugs and no tech plugs no pictures on the walls except a poster over each bed. Beds uncomfortable. Was like walking into a huge hospital room. Way over the top on minimalism. Sliding door to shared balcony was too difficult to lock after we opened it. The blinds did not totally make our room private. Bathroom was awful with No Amenities. No light at the mirror. One light on the ceiling. Oh how we could go on and on. Major echo.
