It wasn't the most comfortable stay, but the rooms were clean and smelled fresh. To us, it was all that mattered for an inexpensive night's stay.

Just there overnight for a quick stay. Didn't get to use the pool or any amenities. Check in was easy and parking pass was helpful. Can't say much about the decor of the room could use a little help like the light shade was torn and wondered why the table tops were all scarred. Could be really easy to just put a piece of laminate on top. Very basic room very basic price can't complain about that. Look like they've updated the bathroom which was good. Could use a little work.

I would start by saying that the images they provided are not accurate. If you are looking for something to that allows you to cook for your family. This is not the place. The refrigerator is not the size it shows on the images. The rooms are RUN DOWN and this place is in need of serious renovations. The pipes are loud and noise all night. You can see foam sealer everywhere! Cracks from the wall to the countertop-foam. It seems like they told the maintenance if you see a space just spray some expanding foam. Forget about the fact that it is 2 inches from the wall. Foam it, it will be fine. They DO NOT clean the room daily. So that towel and wash cloth will be what you get your entire stay so don't get to much sand from the beaches because you will not get new linen unless you ask. Linen, let's talk about. The towels feel like the $2 Black Friday Walmart specials. Thin as the wind and the size of 3 hand towels. They would fit fine around a toddlers body. It takes you 5 trys to get the key card the recognize and allow the door to open 8 out of 10 times you try. The door looks as if has been kicked in regularly. They are pieced together with sheet of metal and screws. Now, let's just get to the real reason I am writing this. The ROACHES!! Hotel Iris is infested!!!!! I mean come out in the day soon as you put down any thing. They are coming up out the sinks, from behind the microwave, they are in the fridge. You have to remove them before you shower. Bring roach spray PLEASE!

Not a Boutique Hotel.

Pet friendly. Should not be charging a resort fee. Thin, thin, thin walls and loud guests. Friendly front staff. No daily housekeeping, coffee machine or hair dryer. No bugs but interior falling apart - sheets and towels were clean though. Disappointed by how much I paid.

This hotel is very outdated, needs some major upgrades, the room was clean for the most part, staff was nice when checking in. But did not feel safe as there was odd looking people around the hotel just hanging around, someone was also playing music in one of the rooms next to us all night, people talking right outside our room at night. We almost left to go stay somewhere else where we’d feel safer. Overall, please pay a little bit more and stay somewhere else!

The Trap Hotel

Cheapest hotel in the area for a reason. Seems like a lot of the rooms are occupied as housing for drug addicts. First night i was accosted by a woman who was clearly strung out on something. My next door neighbor had random people stopping by the room all day and all night; lots of arguing about "collecting stuff" from them. And to top it all off my room reeked of chlorine that became apparent was used to try and hide the HEAVY smell of cigarette smoke. Burn holes on the curtains as well. If youre on a steep budget, then i guess this is your best best. Free parking which is nice. Other than that I think I'll just save some more money for a better place next time.
