Think twice before staying here!!

The pictures on the site make this place look nice and clean but the outside was very rundown dirty looking and sketchy, kinda looked abandon on one side but the room was ok. They offer free breakfast witch is one of the main reasons we chose this hotel......THEY DO NOT HAVE FREE BREAKFAST......they have free muffins. When we checked out there was a gentleman in the office that was behind the counter talking with another person behind the counter who was extremely unprofessional and cussing in front of guess. We will definetly never stay here again.

Property was located in the area I wanted to be in, but noise from traffic and other tenants took getting used to. The breakfast set out in the morning had a poor selection. Not even fresh pastries or juices.

Horrible experience

We did a reservation for 2 nights with 3 rooms. As soon as we walk in the room bathroom there was alot of cockroaches and we look in between the mattress and there were bedbugs. We couldn’t stay and had to find somewhere else to stay. We told the receptionist and they don’t say anything. The bathroom was dirty the walls had blood like stains. I will not recommend booking here.

They never gave me a final bill. They dont clean the rooms unless you put in a special request. Ceiling leaked from room above. Homeless drug addicts are sleeping in the stairwell. The only good thing is that it is in the middle of downtown Reno, and a block from i 80.

The staff & service is just for the person who helped me with the check in on Monday night, he was really nice. The room smelled bad, dirty sheets, and towels had hair on it. I reported the bathtub didn’t work, they didn’t fixed it. When I was showering the water didn’t go away.
