Their standard is low. We accepted it because it was the only affordable place available in a last minute situation ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### John Aug 27, 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities I liked that the beds were in separate rooms and the beds were comfortable. Also, it was a full apartment if that’s what you are needing. We were just there for sleeping one night. The rooms were clean as well. Unfortunately there was quite a bit of noise in the hallway during the night and it echoed into our room. The property was all a bit rundown but we just needed a place to sleep without spending a fortune. You get what you pay for. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Aug 17, 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Wouldn’t be my first pick The room was clean but very out of date.

The room smelled terrible. The bathroom wasn't clean and the floors had hair on them. Do not stay here. You would do better to sleep in your car. The shower was disgusting and the shower lever to turn on the shower was broken. The curtain was bad and there was no bath mat. The hotel itself was dirty and dusty. Wish we had never stayed here and wish we could have got our money back. AWFUL!!! ##### Megan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### p Jul 1, 2025 Liked: Room comfort #### Bring your dog ...for security The sand castle was ok considering they do except pets. We expect a little less for this reason so are stay was ok to good. The halls carpets are very stained., the rear entrance door was not locked, and rooms have a keyed knob and no deadbolt. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Overall we had a quiet restful night. ##### p Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Kimberly O'Dell Jul 13, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It is not taken care of and there's no staff for assistance. Not a good place at all ##### Kimberly O'Dell Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Veronica Aug 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Check in was quick. Room was clean but there is no fan in the washroom and the cleaning staff left behind the previous soap and shampoo. I didn’t need to use any cause I had my own but it was yucky to look at. It’s an apartment/motel building so there were a lot of people around. Not bothering anyone or noisy so it’s not a complaint. Just to be aware for people out of town. ##### Veronica Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025
