The room I booked had roaches not baby ones either big and small they were not scared to come out either. Seen them most in the bathroom. When I told front desk at check out she said “ il make a note of that” like she wasn’t surprised. I did take pictures and videos. Front bathroom is broken when I called front desk maintenance came with a can of flex seal cause obviously they already knew it didn’t work.

Bad room, decent service
We had a little trouble with the check-in. My fault, it took a little talking to to get them to work with me but eventually did. Got to our room. It was really bad smelled horrible, found piles of garbage in the closet. They did get us into another room that was better but still not very clean. Would not stay again
