It was decent so I thought. Woke up with Bed bug bites and even confirmed it with my doctor. I will never be staying here again. Happy I only booked for a night. But beware you will leave bitten by bed bugs.

It just was what I expected for $148 a night, didn’t look as decent as the pics, ramen noodles in the vending machine type of place, a lot of people that looked a little homeless walking around inside!

Stayed here since we went to a concert nearby. Overall things went ok staying here, but overall this property needs MAJOR renovating and updates. It’s a VERY bare minimum place to stay. All the furniture was visibly scuffed up/breaking down. The armchair looked like it got mauled by a cat. Hallway carpet is coming apart. Holes in the walls from artwork being torn down in the bedroom. No overhead lighting, hardly any amenities. No breakfast. Luckily we just needed a place to sleep so we didn’t have to spend too much time in the room outside of sleeping there. Probably wouldn’t stay here again tbh.

Stay away!!! Horrifying
God awful! Wirst hotel ever! If I could give 0 stars it would be 100% too many. The place has to have 2 security guards and police. There was an actual gang of scary men gathered. It's not safe! And thr property is run down a ghetto like. The staff were down right unwelcoming and rude.
