Roberto, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Had to pay $20. for early check in, horrible customer service, the room I was assigned was not ready(unmade bed,dirty towel, they gave me another room. Fridge was not clean,the toilet broke had to be repaired. Homeless loitering and digging in dumpster, prostitutes in front of property loitering. I spent the nights looking out for my car. Still horrible customer service.

Nice!
I had a wonderful stay. Check-in was quick and easy, and the staff were warm and welcoming from the moment I arrived. My room was clean, and comfortable. The location was great! with plenty of stuff just a short walk away. Overall, I had a fantastic experience and would happily recommend this hotel to anyone.

What I like is that it is a simple cozy place. Not much to ask and that's why I like the price. The dislike, near the highway street where certain women walk the night and day street if you know what I mean.
