The staff was great, including the office during check in and the property maintenance that helped me early morning to check out before the office opened. The property itself is decently maintained, considering it's an older property. Has a fridge, sink, and microwave in the unit. Cleaning could have been a little deeper/better for the bathroom. Pricing was fair and matches the unit. Overall 4/5 for me and would stay her again in the future.

Originally booked room with double beds. It was not available upon arrival. The non-smoking room was soaked in old nicotine remnant fumes. The room was infested with german roaches. The surroundings of this place reminded of L.A. streets, definitely not family friendly. We could not stay and sleep after all and did not receive any refund .The present staff did not have authority to help with satisfactory resolution.

This hotel was a great fit for what I would have needed during my stay if it had been closer to the conference I was attending. It has a small, charming feel to it, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating from start to finish. There were plenty of shops and things to do nearby, which made it very convenient.

The room itself was on the smaller side, and you could hear some traffic noise, so just something to keep in mind if you’re a light sleeper. That said, the pricing was very reasonable, and it offered great value overall.

I needed to be closer to my event, so I ended up moving but I would definitely consider staying again for a short, convenient trip.

This was one of the dirtiest hotels we have ever stayed at. The floor was covered in some nasty substance that made it super slippery. The sheets were dirty. We had no choice but to sleep so we stayed fully dressed with socks on. We wouldn’t even think of using the shower. The fridge was brand new but was lukewarm at best. This hotel was a massive disappointment. If we come to this area again, we will stay next door at the Holiday Inn Express.

Hi, I had that booking with you and that had to change my room twice cause the first one was infested with cockroaches and the second one was also full of cockroaches and smelled like someone has been smoking cigarettes in the ro for weeks. They ended up changing my room for one on the 3 floor which they said was one of the nicest one and ended spending 3 days living and sleeping with dozens of of cockroaches again.

I ended up checking out early on Wednesday instead of Friday cause I couldn’t stand it

The reception clerk said she would message the manager to try and get mea refund for the last 2 days.

I haven’t heard back

Roach Infested

This hotel looked a little sketchy from the photos online, but since we needed a reasonably priced play to stay we didn't have much of a choice. We booked, and it was worse than the pics. We killed no less than 6 roaches and 2 spiders in our room, and on the final morning, let 2 roaches just pass through cause we were so over it at that point. The a/c leaked terribly inside of the room, and left a giant puddle right by the door. When we checked in, she didn't say anything about a parking permit neither needing to be displayed, nor giving us one at all. But on night two, we received a parking violation advising that our car could be towed if we didn't display the permit we were not given, nor told about. Now for the most insulting issue of all. At check-in they required a $100 deposit, that would be returned within 3 business days after checkout should no damages have occurred. It has been 10 days since we checked out, and I have not received this deposit back. It's taken 3 phone calls, but the deposit refund is finally pending on my account. I have stayed in some crappy hotels, but this one was by far the worst. In a surprising twist, every staff person we spoke with was incredibly friendly, so there's that.

This place was the worst!!! A ridiculous amount of roaches in our room and all over the property. The A/C was broken, the room and everywhere on the property smelled horrible, the room wasn't clean, the office wasn't clean, the grounds weren't clean. It was after midnight when we arrived and there was no toilet paper so I had to go to a store close by to buy some. This area was so sketchy I was afraid to go anywhere outside without my pistol and I kept my hand at the ready on my pistol without revealing it was there when I walked to the convenience store. The pictures of the motel were a BIG LIE about the motel. It even appeared (after looking more closely) that the cars in the pictures had been photoshopped into the pictures. The front desk/lobby picture was not of this Home Towne Suites. My family checked out as early as possible and got a refund on the rest of the week we had booked. I would have felt better at the \"Bates Motel\"! In short about this Home Towne Suites...STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!
