    The ice machine was broken. The TV was lopsided on the wall. The sofa cushions didn't fit . The toilet was not attached to the floor.

    Bare bones accommodation.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Surprisingly poorly maintained room!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Inexpensive and furniture and bathroom in disrepair. Bad odor and useful that could open the windows. Not good soundproofing. No real blankets on the bed. The first room that was assigned to was supposedly a non-smoking room and it reeked of cigarettes and the couch cushion was slashed. We were able to get a different room which was better.

    Not as clean as I would have expected.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    I would stay here again for business due to the proximity to work. Less than 10 min drive to and from. Close to restaurants and gas though gas nearby is pricey. No issues with safety as far as location and did have free internet but open network. Fridge, microwave, and coffee machine was nice and overall very clean by staff daily. Well lit at night for parking area. No phone to front desk which wasnt an issue for me. No clock in room so you do have to rely on yourself. Minor holes in wall, bathroom door and ceiling tiles in shower need replaced. A good protected internet would be better. Was on bottom floor and after work you could here what may have been kids running across floor so not well insulated probably due to wood flooring. Not sure if they were "live ins" or temp guests but occured nightly 5 days of the week while there. Ice machine was broke and no breakfast bar offered even though the lobby appeared it used to be set up for it.

    Not a gar bitch bag The matress

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Nothing The room was bad, shower messed up and falling apart

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Apparently "bed sheets (changed on request)" must also be requested by new guests at check-in: there was a lighter under the mattress pad!!! Among the other issues: Wifi did not work in the room; the door has definitely been kicked in (by the police possibly??); there was dried-up used bar of soap stuck to the floor of the shower (btw, there was no plastic shower curtain); one of the doors to the vanity was broken off and stuffed inside, under the sink. Had to put on A/C to cool off the room (it was 74F) where outside it was -5F. They say, you get what you pay for... actually here, you get whatever they can get away with! Never again

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    Get what you pay for.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    The wall HVAC unit did not work properly, the controls didn't seem to affect anything. The unit just randomly very loudly turned on every 15 minutes. But it did not seem to be producing heat. There were no blankets in the room. There was no breakfast, nor coffee. The coffee pot in the room was filled with some disgusting liquid. The lady in the parking lot engaged in dumpster diving was entertaining.

    I found it to be unsafe. It looked like a place with rooms rented by the month for transients, which is not a problem except they were sitting outside their rooms and I did not feel safe. My room was filthy, vinyl bedspread that looked like a table cloth. I lifted it up to see the sheets, they were not tucked in and came off exposing the mattress pad that had blood on it in many areas. I went to the office and said I could not stay here. They said I had to contact you for a refund because they did not want to pay the $20 processing fee you would have charged them. I could not get through your phone AI. I kept putting in the invoice# and it would not go through. I would like a refund. Please direct me as to how this can be accomplished.

    The price was the only positive but hopefully ill be refunded After my thermostat exploded in my apartment I was left finding a dog friendly place to stay with my 14 year old on a school night. Called beforehand they confirmed 50 incidental 10 dog. Arrived and they waived dog fee because shes a service animal. Thought how nice. Then I was the room and realized they had no business charging even the incidental. It was the most disgusting room ive ever seen. Department of health needs to investigate this location. Pictures to follow
