The place is run down. The room had holes on the wall, the bathroom door didnt close becuase the foam from inside the door was coming out through the bottom. I reserved it for 2 nights, i barely made it through the first night and left. I didnt care about losing my money for the second night .

Please don't book a room at this hotel; just seeing the outside tells you not to go in. I decided to go somewhere else—I didn't dare stay there. I wasn't inside for even 15 minutes.

They didn't honor our reservation and we advised of late check in! My 13 years old and me had to go to the Emerald Inn and suites across the streets. Which was gracious enough to accommodated us. Was not good for children or clean, and TV remote was broken, nice patch in the roof! Great potential if they do the work. New update bring a very clean towel and a bacteria kit start checking A/C. It is not your house nor do you have friends. When your stay ends leave if you don't get the receipt make sure it is on a trackable payment source! Email copy to family, yourself, company you booked from. Safety first be ready for anything!

This hotel is terrible first off the picture of the rooms on the website does not reflect what the rooms actually look it false advertising at its best to get you to send your money. My first room was horrible dirty shets, pillow cases, broken furniture drawers hanging from the nightstands and the mirror that was supposed to be on the wall wasn't no couch fridge don't work just a hot mess. I was giving another room after leaving a bad review which was fine the room was a little better so I thought at first it at least looked better, but the bedding was dirty they left dirty towels and rags for me to use and they have roaches. I only stayed because I was moving into my apartment and I had already put my money down so I was kinda stuck which sucked but I made a way I was barely there since I work so that was a blessing. They kicked me out the day before I was moving into my apartment because I was telling people not to book there if I seen them outside in my passing and the front desk chick that's built bad overheard me and caught an attitude but instead of being upset just clean this filthy place and stop posting pics of rooms that do not reflect what the actual rooms are like again false advertising at its best smh .... I posted pictures of my experience glad I'm in my own space now because that week there was horrible.

Rooms are just not what they are advertised as on the Internet they look nothing like what they display false advertising at its best. No couch in the rooms just a big empty space there the bedding is not washed properly stand

The front desk employee was rude, short, and dismissive. I specifically told her I did not want a room on the ground floor. She said she would move me to a higher floor and told me to check the room and come back if I didn’t like it. She placed me on the third floor. When I entered the room, it was immediately clear it was not up to standard. There were holes in the walls, and then I went into the bathroom and found roaches crawling on the sink. I took a moment to stay calm because this was extremely upsetting. I attempted to call the front desk, but the phone in the room did not work. I stepped out to gather my belongings and returned to the front desk to request a refund due to the roaches and the condition of the room. Instead of apologizing, the employee blamed me, saying she had told me to “check the room.” She then said she could move me to the second floor, which made no sense since she had already placed me on the third floor. If she knew the room was not acceptable, I should never have been placed there in the first place. I would have rather stayed on the ground floor than in an infested room. I remained calm throughout the interaction, but the employee became increasingly nasty and unprofessional. She eventually said she would refund my money because she “didn’t want to hear this.” I was refunded, only because she was over it

The rooms are not the best, I just moved out here from Philadelphia needed an affordable place to stay while I save to find an apartment and I must say I am not pleased at all with this place. The first room I was in the furniture was broken, no couch, there was hair on the TV stand so you could tell that it was not cleaned properly so I had to disinfect myself, the pillow cases were filthy the room just looked ran down and had a weird smell I was so uncomfortable, I put my blanket across the bed to just get some kind of rest. The next day I received a call from the hotel asking if I wanted another room I quickly said yes she then ask if I have a preference I said yes I prefer a smoking room she says all the smoking rooms look like the room I originally had smh just give me a non smoking room if it's going to be a better room but my biggest question is why does all the smoking rooms look run down with broken furniture just a hot mess. The next room is a little better but still not the best but the furniture is not all broken and trashy looking still no couch but I can get pass that so it's workable until I find something else in my budget price range can't pay for luxury right now while trying to get this apartment have to stay focused on the goals at hand. If your looking for affordable then here would seem like a good idea but if you're looking for something more within your comfortability level I suggest you look for something else .

With that being said, this hotel needs to have more than paint slapped on the walls. It truly should get a full renovation or advertise for hourly rooms. The 1st impression is that they are trying to update this hotel but as soon as you look closer and step into the elevator even, you realize it is bad. The elevator has scratched off paint, dirt piled up and turf as a rug. It smells. Upstairs on the 2nd floor where our room was located, you can see the fresh paint but it was not done very well. Literally slapped on the walls. There is splatters across all the flooring, in the hallway and the rooms. The door to our room stuck and would not close without pulling hard. The room smelled musty and sour with the taint of weed. There was no sitting area as advertised in the pictures on hotels.com. There was no toilet paper ANYWHERE in the room or bathroom and no toilet paper roll rod to hold toilet paper even if we had it. There were only 2 towels in the bathroom for 2 people to dry off with. Usually there are 4 towels. The comforter has holes in it. Stains on the wall. There was an ironing board but no iron. The room was below average- spacious but ghetto. Smelled of smoke (weed) despite

I dont know why I never got my rewards points for this stay and I just noticed this. I ended up upgrading to their jacuzee room and paying about 700 bucks for my 7 day trip, instead of the a little over 300 I was quoted for when i booked and I wasn’t trying to be a Karen, I would have been okay with just getting the Onekey rewards I had been originally supposed to get with my booking, but no, these people just took away my Onekey rewards all together like if I would have cancelled or something, when I’m actuality, I decided to pay for their top room instead. That’s horrible business ethics. That on top of them trying to charge me almost double what my per night amount was when I paid for the 7 days, when I tried to add an additional night is the reason I would never recommend this establishment

Where do I start???? Let’s start at the basics of it not being as advertised. There was no breakfast and no coffee in the hotel AT ALL. The room didn’t even have a lamp. The phone didn’t work…in fact it was missing buttons. The smell of pot in the hallway would give anyone a contact high. We called 911 at around 2am because people were fighting on our floor and were actually threatening to shoot each other in the face. It took the police an hour to show up and the 911 dispatcher said we were the second call. We couldn’t call the front desk from our room obviously and we tried to call with our cell phone and it would ring twice and then nothing. It was the worst experience I have ever had in a hotel and I travel considerably.

Just terrible!!! It said free breakfast and they said there was no type of breakfast at all. They said check out at 12:00pm but they told us we have to check out by 11:30am. I asked for an extra towel because they only put 2 towels in the room and theres 3 of us and they tried to tell me we can only have 2 because it’s 2 double beds and when I complained, the maintenance lady rolled her eyes at me and finally gave me one. I was trying so hard to maintain myself since my kids were there. When I got back to the room, I noticed the towel was cut up. She might’ve been using it as a rug. I already complained to the property manager but haven’t heard back. Also the sofa/chair was missing from the room. You can tell where there’s an empty space but in the pics it was there. This place is terrible!!! I wish I would’ve stayed somewhere else. Smdh!

The room was very big because they removed the excess furniture like table, lamp, couch. They have a huge room with king size bed 2 nightstand, drawer, one broken lamp and one chair.Good size fridge and microwave. Missing iron and ironing board. My mattress is wet and the front desk accused me of wetting it myself and refused to transfer me to another room. The picture showed a desk and the reason i picked the establishment because of desk and wifi. I asked for a desk since i will be working during my stay and they couldnt provide a desk. The wifi was not great and you could not do any zoom calls without freezing, delays, and slow connection. Front desk during check in was rude. The night front desk was nicer and was willing to help me but at the time ive reached my limit. It was disgusting that i have to lie in a wet mattress.

The smell from the Reno and the smell of smoke made me and family sick. First room assigned was so heavy with smoke smell I requested a non smoking room the attendant said they had no other rooms and he offered some spry and said the room is a non smoking room. I immediately asked for a refund but then he gave us another room. The second room was somewhat better but still had the two smells. We checked in at 9 pm and end up leaving at 12 midnight because we couldn’t stand the smell any longer. The hotel shouldn’t charge full price when going through a renovation or at least they should disclose the information. My family became sick during our stay. I went to the desk to check out no one to be found. All kinds of people coming and going in and out ( night people, people of the streets). I felt unsafe there. The room was not very secure as you can see from my pictures. Call ahead and confirm if renovate complete. Don’t pay 89.$ for a one night stay. There are better places to stay for less. Never again will I stay here renovation or not! Don’t let the pictures from the website fool you. Read the reviews I will from now on. Sick place! Horrible

The fridge had rust and black mold.I paid in advance but refused to stay in that place. I will be seeking a refund from Hotels.com. If I was Hotels.com I would not stain my reputation by listing this property. Rooms looked nothing like online pics

The room and stuff was fine, but when it came down to asking simple questions about the refund policy because I didn’t need the room, Jay at the desk said he’d get with the manager and let me know. He never called back so when I called later that evening and asked for Jay ( whom answered the phone again) he said Jays not here, and when I said well who is this talking you sound like Jay he replied the front desk guy and hung up. Now the next morning when I went and there was Jay again. Recognized the voice he had been there. So I politely and professionally told about the disappointment I had with just simply wanting to know about my stay unpaid for and you lied about who you were hung up in my face and was highly unprofessional for a hotel establishment. When your dealing with customers always be polite or even if you can’t answer the question get someone above you that can.
