    Overall we had a nice stay, we booked last minuet so options were a but limited. The staff were all super nice and helpful when we needed anything. Did have to change rooms but it was an easy switch. Not the cleanest and doesn’t have a lot of amenities, also the surrounding neighborhoods are kind of sketch but the hotel location is in a semi good central area. If you need something affordable and last minuet I would recommend. Staff really stood out to us though! Very very nice :)

    It was cozy enough for maybe a one night stay and then back on the road trip. Not recommended for longer stays. The shower after the second night did not have hot water. The bed was uncomfortable. It was a decent property and will probably use it for a short stay not a week.

    I liked that this place, it's second time I stayed here. Not going lie, the stay wasn't as good this second time around. The room wasn't as clean as it was when we first stayed there. So was a bit disappointed. Wi-Fi was good, television not so much, kept saying network wasn't working so we didn't watch TV at all during our stay. Also, parking is first come first serve so yeah. Other than that place was good, it is near alot of beaches, like 30 minutes, away depending on traffic.

    The toilet seat was completely broken and dangerous to seat on. Especially for an elder. The shower curtain at the bottom has mildew stains.The mildew was to close to my wife and I feet's while showering. Also, there is two metal objects full of rush sticking out the corner of the bathtub shower area, dangerous I mite add if someone was to slip and full.

    It was a good stay - need to put window treatments in all rooms - I had to use my car’s sunshade - which fit perfectly in the window so someone would not be able to watch me sleep. Other rooms had better window treatments. The room was clean no issues there I had a fridge and microwave- love that. It was a basic room which is all I needed. Convenient to where I needed to go for my class - closes to stores - felt safe walking in the area.

    It is a pleasant experience. We had issue with the TV but they came to our room and showed as the issue. We need to get close to the connection in order to change the channel. Also another issue I am sure I made reservation but could not find it on arrival on my apps but they also took care of that.

    The bed sheets had stains on them. one of the stains looked like blood. The shower still had hair in it. The fridge smelled so bad. Like left over rotten food. The sink faucet was so loud when turning it on and running the water. I did feel itchy when I woke up so I feel like there were bed bugs. They even had a mattress protector around the mattress so how does that even happen.
