"Bugs all over the hotel room and cleanliness is not even a word they know here as the bathroom was disgusting. My step-brother went to front desk asking if they could leave and get a refund but were denied because they had been there 2 hours but only because he wasn’t sure what to do in this situation as he is only 22 years old and doesn’t know any better. He slept in his car because of how gross the place was and just used it to shower in morning. Which by the way had no hot water. Do not recommend this unless you have absolutely no where else to go."

"Don't stay here. The hot water doesn't work. The heaters don't work. The air conditioners don't work. There are no amenities whatsoever, and it is not safe. Theft is rampant, rumor is the door locks are not effective, and rooms are entered when you are not present. Parking is not safe either."

"This hotel was the worst hotel I’ve ever been to. The photos were highly misleading, and the surroundings were far from ideal and very ghetto. The room was in poor condition with bugs and roaches, dirty walls, a deteriorating floor, and a lingering smell of smoke. When I requested a different room, the receptionist claimed they were all booked, which wasn't true as there were people without reservations seeking rooms. Additionally, another guest was forcibly removed from the room I was supposed to stay in and attempted to break in. I contacted Expedia for a refund, and the receptionist assured me of a full refund, which I was supposed to receive on Monday. However, when Monday came, I only received a refund for one night because the hotel falsely claimed I refused another room when, in fact, they said they were fully booked. It's frustrating that they lied and kept my money despite their wrongdoing. I've stayed in much cleaner and more professional 2-star hotels that were far more accommodating. I would appreciate it if they could refund my money back!!!!!!!"

"Stay away from this property unless you have absolutely no where else to stay! Our room was not ready until 4:30pm and as soon as we walked in it smelled really bad and there was hair and stains all over the bed. Not sure exactly what they cleaned Roaches all over the walls. No towels, no soap provided. Very outdated property and I assume it was overpriced because of F1 this weekend."

"I booked this place at the last minute because it was priced at $62/per night. But it turned out to be a nightmare. The front desk was good, and gave me the keys. The room was a non-smoking one, but the moment I entered there was a strong smell as if someone had smoked previously. The floor was sticky and moist. Kitchen sink was extremely dirty. The bedsheets, comforters had holes and stains on it. The shower area had hair stuck everywhere on the walls (seems like it was not cleaned from the previous people). The shower had limited water pressure. There were big roaches/bugs everywhere. The ac/refrigerator made awful sounds every 10-20 mins and disturbed my sleep the whole night. Also one of the rooms had clothes/undergarments hung up outside their room."
