The first room I was given smelled like someone had been smoking cigarettes in it. The smell was so strong that I was only in the room for about five seconds before walking back out, and my clothes even smelled like smoke afterward. When I told the front desk, the employee tried to explain it away by saying the smell probably came from people smoking in the hallway, which made no sense considering how strong it was inside the room.

He gave me a key to a second room, but when I opened the door, it was full of love bugs and flies because there was a noticeable gap under the door. At that point, I had enough and asked for a refund. I ended up leaving and booking a room somewhere else. Overall, the hotel was dirty, poorly maintained, and not a place I would stay again.

Things started off well with check in being very easy, but things turned bleak when we opened up our room for the first time. Immediately the smell of mildew and mold hit us. Don't try to open a window, they're sealed shut. Unfortunately, we were coming from out of state to se a concert nearby so we didn't have time to find another hotel. Luckily checkout was very easy. Here I am almost a week later with a severe cough and fever as a reminder of the terrible air quality.

No place for towels to hang. Floors absolutely filthy EVERYWHERE. Had to wear sandals as feet became black from the floor!! All surfaces grubby and in need of deep cleaning including shower area.
Sat 11 pm Power outage left the room completely black … no AC, no emergency light in the room, no TV,
No emergency lighting on outside 3rd and 2nd floor corridors except for one light located on the ground floor of the staircase on the parking lot side. No assistance or help or notifications, flashlights or a safe location for customers and no functioning elevator. “We know nothing about this and we can’t do anything”.

the pool was \"closed for repairs\" and it look like a permenent condition. The homeless people peed in the elevator, which smelled like urine and wax. The floor was disgusting. The manager talked on the phone the whole time he checked us in. Frankly this place showed \"regret of ownership\" rather than pride of ownership. While they can't help it if the homeless peolple invaded the neighborhood, they could pick up the belongings left by them at the entrance put security lmonitors by the elevator and redo the elevator floor. We made as far as opening the door to the room, saw the saggy beds and turned around and left.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL! We arrived here with our kids in the evening. There was nobody present at the \"night window,\" and outside the property was an unattended car with all doors open, large and loud groups partying, homeless people... we did not feel it was a safe place. We immediately contacted Expedia and told them we would try to get a room at the neighboring hotel (which turned out to be 100% safe and so much better despite only a slight price difference), and got our first night refunded by them. Expedia said they would contact the owners of the hotel to get the rest of our money back. Three days later, we get a message from Expedia stating that the owners are completely unresponsive, which means they are unable to get us refunded.

I had a very disappointing and uncomfortable experience at this hotel. There appeared to be people living there long-term, and the overall atmosphere felt more like a rundown apartment complex than a hotel. The room itself was in terrible condition. The furniture was visibly damaged, the sheets were ripped, and everything felt dirty and neglected. To make matters worse, the toilet wasn’t working properly, which made the stay even more frustrating and inconvenient.
Outside the rooms, there were groups of people lingering around that made the environment feel unsafe and unsettling. Combined with the fact that the hotel is located in a bad neighborhood, I genuinely did not feel secure during my time there. I was supposed to stay from Friday to Sunday, but due to these conditions, I decided not to stay at all. I spoke with the front desk regarding my concerns, and they offered to move me to another room. I went with a staff member to view a second room, but unfortunately, it was just as bad if not worse than the first. At that point, I explained that I did not feel comfortable staying at the property and asked if there was anything they could do. The staff informed me that I would still be charged for the first night, but that I would receive a refund for the second night since I would not be staying. However, I never received the promised refund. Overall, this experience was extremely frustrating and unacceptable. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Not a family safe location at all and most \"guests\" are for workers... if you know you know. They collect a resort fee... but there are no resort amenities and the property is run down...not in good shape. This is a 1 star property.
