Not as advertised
This is not a hotel. There is no lobby, no person to check-in with. They list free parking, except all the spots in the lot are paid for and reserved. Parking is on the street which is used by the local residents. It took 10 minutes of driving around the neighborhood to find a spot. The layout of the building is very strange. Many exit doors with no ability to use the keycard to get in. Although my unit was on the first floor, the only way to get to it required me to go up to the second floor. I then had to meander through hallways to the other side of the building and go back downstairs. My unit was right next to an exit door, so leaving was easy. The only lights that worked was a bedside lamp and the bathroom light. No bath towels only 2 washclothes and 2 hand towels. And no one to call to fix the situation!

THIS IS NOT A HOTEL
ZERO communication from the property. I had to drive to a random motel and pick up my room key there. There isn’t a receptionist area. BEWARE THIS PLACE IS FALSE ADVERTISING. Parking spots are designated and not assigned upon check in. You will risk having your vehicle towed. Found trash from the previous guests on the floor inside the hotel room. I couldn’t use the shower because it looked dirty. The bedsheets were FILTHY and the pillows had BLOOD STAINS. Thankfully I travel with my own pillows. Mattress was so springy and uncomfortable, the floor was much more comfortable. I’ve stayed in hostels around the world with better quality than this junk.
