I couldn’t believe how many complaints this place has over parking. Street parking is about 6 steps away from the building… plenty of parking space around. Very spacious room with kitchen. It smelled very clean and looked clean. Rest room was clean and they even provide shampoo, conditioner, hand wash and more. Would definitely be coming back and especially for the price! Can’t beat it.
No parking without a paid permit, so you have to look for street parking. The stairwell is locked. There is no "private entrance" as the listing claims.
The area is very noisy. The heating/cooling unit is also very loud, but it's not a steady sound so it doesn't work as white noise.
The shower had not been cleaned. There was hair all over it.
Overall a terrible place to stay.
This was probably the worst experience I have ever had! Wasn’t even able to stay there as my key once I got it didn’t work and I couldn’t get anyone to return my text or calls! I would NOT recommend this place to anyone. No one was on site and never was told I needed a parking pass nor received one horrible experience!
We spent about an hour trying to figure out check in. The hotel was not in communication with us and sent no emails. We had to go to a different location to check in which was not on my ticket.
Loved the unit itself. Must check-in at a hotel several miles away to pick up the key. Parking MUST be arranged prior to arrival, otherwise, only street parking.
Starling was strong in many areas. The housekeeper let his mouth play him out his tip though. I got no towel change either day but still 5 stars. Sat Sri Akal

Check I. Is at another location, and you have to reserve at least 24 h in advance to get a paying parking spot. Netflix and Hulu apps didn’t work, and there’s no table lamp on the nightstand. They also give only one card to enter the room, even though we were a couple. Otherwise, the room, kitchen and bathroom were pretty clean!
This entire property booking is a scam. Majority of the reviews are the same. No one can access building or get ahold of anyone to access it.There should be a requirement to host a booking that you check in on site, or contactless check in with a door code. Name another bob or hotel short term stay that makes you go office to check in. AND NEVER ANSWERS THE PHONE. The customer service is awful and based on other reviews they gaslight all the issues to some point. They know what they are doing by requiring check in be at another location and its not in big bold letters. They scam people. don't answer their phone to get back to customers until the booking ends and deny a refund. Expedia should not allow them the platform to advertise this scammy booking. 0/10
There were black curly hairs covering our mattress and sheets. Other people’s old food and garbage was under the bed. Overall incredibly unclean. Horrible experience will not be returning
