We left Wednesday morning returned in afternoon. I found the cleaners had been in and taken something they shouldn't have. Went to front desk, clerk was flippant and said it was trash. I explained trash was in trash can and the recycling was put in a different area. However this was taken and should've been left alone. Advised no one to enter our room again till we check our.. i know this is a little crazy but i had put stuff away and that means it wasn't trash...

Disliked: Amenities
The amount of what I paid for $ 214 is way too overpriced. Property is not good condition air conditioning did not work. I got $ 15 percent back to compensate air conditioning. That'was the only choice. The bathroom it had mold . This is more like $ 100 for value. No I won't recommend this property

Cheap room, cheap amenities

I was here for 5 nights. Ice machine broken the whole week. The AC/heat unit in the room did not work. No tissue paper in room. Bath tub had multiple patch jobs on it. When I asked for new towels, they had me go to their laundry room and get it myself. A few good things, they had a security guard at night. Inexpensive room. Gave out a parking pass to make sure you were staying there.
