$100 Deposit Required

There was a $100 deposit required on check in, which was a surprise to me. The room was clean and the full size refrigerator was just perfect since I bring all my own food when I travel. I would happily stay here again.

Great value for the price and location. Easy to get to all the 280 shopping, interstates and downtown. Quick check in, friendly staff. Very clean but simple room. The window coverings have seen better days, and it felt like the door was never locked, but all in all was exactly what I needed. A solid if sparse room, perfect for a good sleep and shower then running out to do other things in town.

The manager was awesome. Very friendly. Answered the phone when we called. Location was convient. However, the bathtub was nasty, the water pressure nonexistent, and constant parties all hours of the night in the next room...which is really not the owners fault. Housekeeping was the housekeeper picking up the garbage but not replacing toilet paper or sweeping the floor. So, ive been in worse and it was decent for the cost.

When we first arrived there was no running water. We were also told that we had to check in with the front desk because there was an issue, but they wouldn't clarify what it was. It turns out that they confused my reservation with another and had us in the wrong room for the wrong days. After I was finally able to sort that out, there was no adjustment of the wrong room. The room was moderately clean but showed serious signs of deterioration. The maintenance and housekeeping staff were very friendly and helpful.
