We didn’t even end up staying at the property because it was so dirty and gross. Spent the extra money to stay at a different hotel for peace of mind. A lot of long term rentals at this property. There was dirt, chip crumbs, and dog kibble on our floor. The room had a terrible smell to it. Staff was willing to sweep the room but overall it just didn’t feel safe and that wouldn’t have helped the smell.

“Nicely remodeled rooms and a great value—definitely one of the best deals in town! The virtual check-in process was fast and convenient, with room keys dispensed automatically. However, it was a bit confusing since there was also someone behind the front desk, yet no human interaction took place
