2/10 Poor

That was scary
Nobody ever acknowledged me, it was an apartment space and I didn’t know what to do. Thankfully the motel I had to find honored my reservation
Susan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

To tired to wait, for the extra steps
You have to go to another motel to get the keys and wait nearly an hour to check in because the hotel agent at the desk is responding to a third party online and can't view your check-in automatically so you have to wait after a long trip; One is tired! But after that, the place is very pleasant.

Read the reviews
I should have read the reviews beforehand. Very inconvenient to check in 5 miles away, with no response to voice or text messages. This could be an acceptable place but the lack of bedding on the pull out couch combined with the paper thin discount bedding on the main bed made sleeping for more than one impossible. On the street parking isn't as bad as others state as there were a few places near juvenile hall- I vascilated between worrying about tickets or break ins. Luckily it only rained 2 nights while i was there. What a shame. With a responsive or caring manager, this apartment could complete with other motels in the area

Loved the unit itself. Must check-in at a hotel several miles away to pick up the key. Parking MUST be arranged prior to arrival, otherwise, only street parking.

Nice property
Starling was strong in many areas. The housekeeper let his mouth play him out his tip though. I got no towel change either day but still 5 stars. Sat Sri Akal

Room was way smaller than advertised and there is no free parking, and no way to purchase a parking pass on site.

I couldn’t believe how many complaints this place has over parking. Street parking is about 6 steps away from the building… plenty of parking space around. Very spacious room with kitchen. It smelled very clean and looked clean. Rest room was clean and they even provide shampoo, conditioner, hand wash and more. Would definitely be coming back and especially for the price! Can’t beat it.

It felt like I'd won the lottery, and it was my lucky day! I had not seen anything be available here before. For the price, this value was unreal!!!!!!! I was afraid it was a scam, or that there would at least be a hidden fee, and i was wrong, it really was true! The only negative is there was no way to get more than one night- there is no last minute adjustments, but thats not really a negative its just in high demand! Ooh the having to pick up the key at a different hotel was something that should be mentioned first, i was completely thrown off by that lol!!!

2/10 Poor

No matter how many times I drove back and forth to the satellite office and hotel. My key card would not work. I ended up leaving and going to another hotel. But will not get a refund
Dominic, 1-night trip

Its perfect for a 1 night stay. Didnt like the smell when i walked it but the aircon helped with that. They also let me check in early after speaking to the host.

2/10 Poor

We spent about an hour trying to figure out check in. The hotel was not in communication with us and sent no emails. We had to go to a different location to check in which was not on my ticket.
Zell, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a bit of a hassle to check in. You have to drive to a different location to get the keys. Would be more convenient if they had someone in site

Staff was unresponsive, misleading, and rude when they did have to interact with a guest.
Chelsey, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible and very unsatisfied
Was not able to check in because there was No Check In lobby or staff and No one answered The Phone Number that I Called and I’m waiting for A Response to My refund or credit to use the money I Lost because I was not able to get In contact with anyone to be able to check in
Celestina, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This was probably the worst experience I have ever had! Wasn’t even able to stay there as my key once I got it didn’t work and I couldn’t get anyone to return my text or calls! I would NOT recommend this place to anyone. No one was on site and never was told I needed a parking pass nor received one horrible experience!

10/10 Exceptional

Check I. Is at another location, and you have to reserve at least 24 h in advance to get a paying parking spot. Netflix and Hulu apps didn’t work, and there’s no table lamp on the nightstand. They also give only one card to enter the room, even though we were a couple. Otherwise, the room, kitchen and bathroom were pretty clean!
