Terrible area, dirty rooms. I kept on itching all night and I felt as though bugs were crawling on my skin. I would’ve not minded the poor customer service if they kept a clean facility.

Never again
My person showed up and they said the reservation was no good. We had to purchase another room. The desk clerk was very rude and not much to say for a personality. Refused to allow my driver to take or make a call in the office. Would not only not recommend this place, but would recommend people NOT to go there..

Bed was small. Ordered a queen bed it was barly a full size. I rolled off in the middle of the night. And i bet im not the first person to do so. The night stands are on the other side of the room so that you dont hit your head. Lots of bugs in the room. Looked like cockroach.

This was a strategic location during a bike ride. It was filthy. Even the tap water to fill my water bottle was brown. I reserved rooms with 2 beds and was told day of arrival they only had single bed rooms. Didn't care about our needs. Spend a few more dollars and be happy someplace else.

Two stars for micowave
They didnt have a room available when I arrived at 2 pm, which I understood. I told the clerk I would not be back until after midnight. When I returned, the night clerk asked me about my earrings and why do I have more than one piercing? He asked me if i was staying in the room alone in a professional manner, but it felt creepy. He gave me wrong directions to my room. Then I discovered a bit later that he had neglected to return my ID. I had to go ask for it. It was still in the copy machine. The room could use a good scrub. If that dirt doesnt scrub off, then the doors and frames need to be replaced and the walls painted. I did not sleep between the sheets because they were soiled. The only good thing about the hotel is the location next to the freeway and a Waffle House. Go see Angie!
