Hey, Rob did the hotel and they did not have a room for us. I received confirmation I will check and make sure it was not charged because we had to go somewhere else and pay four times the amount. So no I was not happy because we didn’t even get to stay in our room. They must’ve given it away, so it was not a good situation.

Pictures and description on the internet totally misrepresenting.. We travel pretty extensively and this was one of the biggest disappointments we've had.. not very clean, amenities were at the minimum..not very well maintained.."see pictures" sketchy part of town with a lot of stragglers.. we won't be visiting here again.. The staff was awesome and totally took care of everything that they could for us.. but the complex left us feeling unsafe and dissatisfied..

Don’t stay here.
Whole place reeks of cigarette smoke, inspite of signs saying no smoking. Littered in and out with cigarette butts. The room was dirty, mystery white substance on the headboard and brown stained sheets. The water pressure in the shower was basically a trickle. We opted to leave at 3am the day after we checked in because it smelled so bad it was making me sick to my stomach. My advice, pay a little more and stay anywhere else.

I stayed here for a day. The room itself was great. Definitely worth the price. If you are a non smoker, it might be a little uncomfortable for you. I visited from another country and was not used to the smoking culture.

It was a okay stay
The hotel room was very renovated updated. The only think I didn't like was the shower, didn't have hot water, only warm water and the shower water pressure was not good neither. Also no breakfast. Other than that, it was a decent stay.

Frontal desk were really nice. The only issue was that our sheets had stains on it and we requested new ones. But overall, stay was ok.

I stay at a lot of hotels and this was far and away the worst one I’ve ever been to. The pictures need to be updated - hotel no longer looks like them. It’s run down, dirty and the staff pretended they didn’t notice. They offered to move me to a new room which was somehow worse than the first. 0/10 recommend. Awful.

Not the greatest
Convenient location as it was close to the arena in which we were attending a concert for. The smell of marijuana was very very harsh in the lobby along with the rest of the public space in the hotel. The sheets were clean however the comforters were stained with what appeared to be an oil type of substance. The floor was not swept but could be overlooked. The surfaces were wiped down and semi clean. Would not stay again but for a one night stay it was an ok experience.
