This stay was pretty much as expected for a budget type extended stay hotel. The building appears fairly old and could use some renovation to be more modern and aesthetically appealing, while the suite served it's functional purposes fine, with kitchen appliances and TV working, no visible bugs or dirt/stains, etc. It wasn't noisy and check in and out was smooth. While the hotel had stated toiletries aren't included the suite did have some towels and soaps in the bathroom. No luxuries or regular room service but if you just need a decent practical place to stay this hotel seems good.
The property was in terrible condition and literally a crackhead den, though I should’ve noticed since the price was so good.
Rooms were clean, but the dresser was broken and the showers had terrible pressure (the water was hot though, I’ll give it that.)
Fresh pipe in the hallway, people laying out in the halls between rooms and the manager warning us about people breaking in… Definitely wouldn’t recommend to the average person haha
Room was clean but floors was sticky and bathroom had a very strong smell of urine. Staff was very nice. Parking was okay but not close to the room you were in. Bed had plastic wrap and it made it very uncomfortable to sleep. Will not stay again
This hotel was a great fit for what I would have needed during my stay if it had been closer to the conference I was attending. It has a small, charming feel to it, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating from start to finish. There were plenty of shops and things to do nearby, which made it very convenient.
The room itself was on the smaller side, and you could hear some traffic noise, so just something to keep in mind if you’re a light sleeper. That said, the pricing was very reasonable, and it offered great value overall.
I needed to be closer to my event, so I ended up moving but I would definitely consider staying again for a short, convenient trip.
The young lady at the desk was very pleasant. However, there was no shampoo, coffee as advertised, or batteries for the tv remote. The bed was cozy and the ac was good.
I really enjoyed my stay. 5 minutes after checking in I got a call to my room from the front desk to make sure everything was good and working properly. very considerate !!!!

Rooms are nice and clean.
But prostitute's pimp's and drug dealers hanging around outside in the car park all night. Making you feel unsafe there
The personnel was friendly and accommodating. However, the floor was sticky, and the bathroom was not clean.

Not a good value even for around $75 for the night. And the water pressure went to zero during my stay. They did get it back up again within about one hour.
The check-in person is behind THICK bullet proof lexan, which should tell you something.
Bathroom floor had a muddy foot print before I entered
only positive really was the location. near to airport and Universal theme parks

Good enough as a place to sleep but not much else.
Room was smaller than expected for a queen bed. The property photos show a coffee bar in a lobby area, but there is no such thing on site, nor are there in-room coffee makers or disposable cups.
On the plus side, there was a 3/4 size refrigerator, microwave, and cooktop in the room.

Staff is amazing!! Liza and everyone do awesome on a daily basis. House keeping also do a great job. The manager is a good guy and so is the gm. Its not bad for the price, you cant go wrong. Few bugs but nothing out of this world. Its not the Ritz Carlton so just have to take care of it. For most part it has been safe place to stay. Neighbors were awesome as well.
Check in was easy. Parking was great, had a spot right in front of our room. No problem with our key card, went right in. Room was decent. No odor. Refrigerator had food stains on outside of door. Microwave was dirty inside. Bathroom was ok. Had mold along the shower. But hey it was only for 1 night. There were guests sitting outside and walking all around at all hours. But we mind our business so we'll. Check out was weird. Asked about getting my 100 deposit back. We were informed that housekeeping had to check our room first and she told us she didn't know when that would be. Wow. The way the room looks, I find it hard to believe that they even have regular housekeepers. But you get what you paid for. I give it 4 out of 10 stars
