    Bed was great.

    While the staff was incompetent, they at least knew their mistake and corrected it. They gave me fresh towels and a shower curtain upon request. The staff was incompetent, because they confused my name with someone else's. The shower curtain was durty and so I asked staff to give me a new one. There was a roach and a fly in my hotel room.

    Do not stay here this was the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The was a cockroach in the washroom as soon as I walked in and it looks like they rent out for people to live in who were up all hours of the night outside our room. I didn’t feel safe for me or my family at this hotel. We woke up early and left without eating the breakfast as it didn’t look edible and there wasn’t much to choose from.

    Bad

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    There is only one way in & out of the parking lot. I immediately had an uneasy vibe. There were so many people hanging out outside and the smell of marijuana was everywhere. We decided to park and look at the room before we took anything out of the vehicle. The van we parked beside had blankets on the windows and writing on the side of it. The room itself was dirty and had a strong chemical smell. The guy in the office showed us another room that was equally unacceptable. I did not feel safe anywhere on the property. We were given a refund and found a nicer & less expensive hotel. If I could give 0 stars I would! I would never recommend this place to anyone!

    Only got 90 minutes sleep, up all night as had allergic reaction to bedding as likely washed in industrial chemicals. Pillows were paper thin and unsupportive. Also an odor coming from a/c unit. Do not recommend staying here unless on a very tight budget.

    It was a place to lay your head, that's all. It's not meant to be the Hyatt. Just a place that's clean and affordable. Not in the greatest part of town. but your not tripping over bottles and bodies. Great Hot Dog establishment next door.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    This place was really nasty. He had roaches. I couldn’t even sleep and he was even the sheets. I think they never changed them. They have blood on them. I don’t really recommend this place. The breakfast was not good either and the person when I check in and check out was not pleasant at all so I would not recommend this place at all.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Clean room but saw a couple of tiny roaches. We got a smoke-free room but the smell of smoke was still very strong. The staff was very nice.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

Did not sleep under covers. AC worked fine. No remote for TV. Floors dirty. Sink area was clean. Room needs alot of work. Did not go to free breakfast but did see cereal and a waffle station.
