Places, dirty rooms are horrible. Bed is completely uncomfortable. The service there was amazing. I will say that the lady counter in the evening shift was awesome. Checking in.However, on the other shift she was slower than anything had ever been with in my life
I was charged more for being 1 person.. but 4 men in one room payed way less than me? Why? I will never use you again not stay at a rasist hotel against white woman! You cater to illegals is what happen here! Illegals get cheaper rates.. while I pay way more as a white lady! Cameras will show.. its discusting and never will use your rasist page again and my lawyer will notify your rasist company against white woman!
The room was not very clean the carpet was disgusting needed cleaned the furniture was broken down and needed cleaned the wifi was in and out the staff was friendly and helpful the deposit took forever to get back breakfast was waffle ir cereal the juice was warm not cold overall it was ok i wouldnt recommend it, i probably wouldnt go back sorry

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
it was terrible i found a condom in the chair in the room, wifi was terrible ruined all my plans that were work related so it ruined my job and to top it off my bag was stolen from the lounge after i turned my back for two minutes by some unknown women. staff has no manners for greeting either
The staff was pretty friendly, however the room and building felt pretty run down...there was a "unique" smell throughout and we found some "bugs" in our room. We checked out early, but you get what you pay for....
Will not stay there again! Holes in bathroom walls, spiderwebs on ceiling. Table legs falling off. Gross Microwave, limited internet. Broken hair dryer.. dirty halls. short tempered staff. Enough said!!!!!
It was nice to have running water! And Happy to be able to smoke in the room

What hotel asks for a cash deposit, shady in my opinion. Nothing is new. Place looks like a cheap motel. Overall experience= poor. I usually don’t book hotels like these. Reminds me to pay for better quality.
Got a smoking room due to availability online. Check in was easy, wasn’t keen on the extra fee/ hold on my card. Place is need of a lot of proper repairs. Shower head was broken. Furnace kept lowering the temp randomly. Had to clean the filter on the furnace(was completely clogged). Beds was extremely uncomfortable.
Waffle,cereal, coffee,juice
Rooms furniture unsafe table wobbly sitting chair nasty dirty!
Bathtub soiled nasty, I would not talk a shower ,I washed at the sink the toilet need to be replaced also ,to be honest the entire building need to be remodeled
The older white lady at front desk need to be taught how to be more friendly and learn how to greet the incoming guess
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL

Just another mid-price US hotel chain
Can't remember now, so obviously created no lasting impression.
As for the questions asked, they are absurd, as not things on which a guest could comment, even if they'd noticed.

You don’t expect too much from something in this price range. Two main complaints- there is a very unpleasant odor, especially near the elevator, and the room lighting is really dim. Thank God for nose-blindness.
The room smelled like smoke. There where stains everywhere and mildew in the bathroom.

Not acceptable
Our stay was barely acceptable- the bathroom had mold in the corners and the toilet has not been properly cleaned in a while . Apparently, there was a water leak and the damage was painted over in some places and poorly repaired in others. Overall, this property has not been maintained for some time. Do not recommend.
Checked in ptac filter were extremely dirty. Cleaned myself. Remote did not work for the TV. The tables legs were so wobbly did not trust to use. Only one light bulb in the vanity ceiling light but could still see what appeared to be bedbugs on the shower curtain. There were also roaches. Had to throw away white socks after walking on carpet because they were so dirty. The whole place smelled musty and like cigarettes. Definitely showing its age.
Room was somewhat dirty, blow dryer didn't work, bed was awful, pillows were awful, and though we were in a non-smoking room, the smell of smoke was very evident and irritating.
