I am not a big fan of the front desk management system he had gave me the wrong room then I had to go back to the front desk and request a room that was not occupied and for the two nights here the water system went down and there was no notification that it was going to be down.

Cheap and dilapidated

Great wifi, TV works, fridge and microwave work, cheap ... But cheap gets you dilapidated, dirty rough towels, torn bedspread, toilet loose, paper thin walls so you know the neighbour hates his cousin, dirty parking lot. Pay more to stay at the motel 6 next door.

When I arrived, they informed me about an additional security deposit they would charge. However, a week later, I found that they had actually charged me that deposit on top of the room rate. I tried contacting them several times. Over the phone, they admitted it was a mistake, but they never respond to messages or emails.

The second we stepped foot inside the room, it was extremely hot and very humid. The water from the bath was slightly running and there was black mold on the ceiling of the shower. The carpet was disgustingly filthy and torn up. The bed linens had marijuana resin stuck to them along with stains. The mattress protecter/cover was outrageously dirty and hadn’t been cleaned/changed. There was drug paraphernalia behind the nightstand and behind/underneath the dresser.
