The room was filthy - piles of crumbs on the floor, drink rings and sticky spills on the tables, sofa arms were visibly soiled and not the same color as the sofa. The shower didn't work. The linens were stained yellow. We planned to stay for 2 nights and checked out after just 1. Had we not been so tired when we arrived, we would not have stayed even one night.

Meh~
Building, parking, location all good. Service great. However, much overdue remodel and cleaning needed. Bathroom cabinet doors missing some handles, not enough tp to last two days with no spares, couch arm 4” year, cereal and used tissues on floor in one bedroom. I’m sure I’ll avoid this place in future visits. Front counter help was great

This place is a hidden gem. Rooms are large and quiet. They are super pet friendly and yet the rooms and lobby don’t smell like they are! The kitchen had nice and newer appliances and even a small oven which is a rarity in any of the kitchenette chains! Jeremy, the assistant manager, is always helping me figure out the best rates and how to get everything I need. He’s kind and a real asset for your hotel. The other manager, Joel, is also super helpful. Imari is a fabulous front end worker and goes above and beyond. Last but certainly not least, the housekeeper, Tiffany, is always checking on me and making sure I have everything I need. She is very attentive. There is on site laundry for guests, a little pantry if you need a quick snack or beverage and a small workout room. Room is heated with a thermostat for a better heat and cool than attached to the unit. It’s always cozy. Water pressure is great, too. I am so pleased that I found this place. You can pay extra to stay somewhere else but this is the best bang for your buck in the area.

I don’t understand why the low ratings. It has been quiet, convenient, the staff has been super and the room is spacious and the appliances are nice and work perfectly. The bed is comfy, the icemaker and laundry area is well maintained. The lobby is decorated nice and is clean. Parking is plentiful. The 150 dollar deposit is excessive in my opinion but that is corporate set, not set by this hotel. Housekeeping is available when needed. All in all, a darn near perfect stay!

First thing is I paid online and this is not a 5 star place but the deposit was $150, now I had to pay it because it was no refunds once booked and everything else was booked. The property had dead bugs everywhere and the rooms are not insulated very well. At 2:30/3am the people in the next room were so loud it was like they were in our room. Also the carpet in the elevator was really disgusting an instant turnoff but if you just need a place to stay it’s not that bad if u look over all that. It’s just not for me. I just need to plan better.

Bait and Switch
Upon check in I was informed there would be a parking charge if I did not provide an email. I specifically book business hotels with no parking fees. I checked in the app- Free Parking was listed. When I went to the room, it had an odor- something like old cooking grease The odor extended to the hallway as well. I tolerated the room, as changing hotels would have been too much of a hassle.

The Management service is above and beyond. They are doing what they can with what they have. My first night was very difficult because I got a room that wasn't properly clean or in proper condition. It had dirty bedsheets, the dishwasher was full of dishes, and the closet had no door. I called the front desk, and they changed the room in less than 10 minutes. The next day, Jeremy, the Manager on shift, interviewed me to apologize and make himself available for any unwanted or unpleasant future events.

Expedia listing says repeatedly free parking and the staff told me it was not and i would charged $5 for the listed free parking. Not the amount but was not as listed. Then they over charged my card for the cost to stay by over $40 which i will call expedia about. This is the first time i have been charged more then listed by expedia obviously this hotel is a shady business. I will not stay here again.
