First, the email address confirmation had the property's location about 5 miles away, so we had to "Google" the property to find it. The air conditioner would NOT cool the room. And showers from other rooms flooded our room through the walls and bathroom door casing. We couldn't leave fast enough. On the upside, the ice maker worked great!

We didn’t even feel safe enough to stay here, we left after someone kept watching us and waited outside our door!!! We didn’t even go in the room! We only needed to stay here one night to sleep and got it because it was cheap and every other hotel was almost 200$ for one night. Trust me pay the 200$ for any other place than here!

**DO NOT STAY IN THIS PLACE** The whole place smells like a strange mixture between drvgs and vomit. The door didn't close from the inside and not to mention the bathroom, which was full of mold. The shower had white particles that we didn't know what it was about. We were only there the time necessary to find a better place to stay. We would NEVER go back.

Even though the price is temping, do NOT stay here. Our room stank of smoke. There was paint peeling off the walls, and the hallways looked like a warehouse or jail. The bathroom was moldy, the floor was cracked and uneven, and the area and hotel felt dangerous. I left the hotel before even sleeping here because I was concerned my car would get keyed. There’s not even anyone staying here to begin with, and the parking lot was mostly empty. I think everyone gets the idea that this hotel and neighborhood are both beyond saving. Now all we need is for the hotel to go out of business and get demolished for everyone’s good. Do NOT stay here whatever you do.
