The staff here is amazing!!! Everyone is super welcoming and friendly. It can get a little loud on weekends(because its super close to downtown), but the bed waa super comfortable, the rooms are spacious, and it's a great location with restaurants in walking distance. I would highly recommend.

The rooms smelled like bleach would not air out. There were empty alcohol bottles in the parking lot and people smoking outside of their rooms. We could not stay at this hotel and I am trying to get my refund and the hotel is charging me for the full amount I agreed to on Expedia and is not telling the truth by saying on my bank account that they are giving me a refund for amounts that were not apart of the agreed upon price. Now the hotel will not answer the phone for myself or Expedia. They say the manager will not be in for a week. It was not safe.

This place charged me $40 for a towel and bed sheets that were already stained when I arrived. They are so rude and uncourteous. In their online profile that said "Breakfast Included" Ha! They dont even have a coffee pot in the room let alone breakfast. The floors of the room were still dirty and the place smeeled like an old Thrift store. They door had no security lock only a single lock. There was only one waste basket in the room and the furniture had grafiti and greasey unclean surfaces. I will NOT stay here again.
