Went for a couple days with my son. Property definitely DOES NOT look like the pictures on the website. Room was decent, toilet was very wobbly. Not to mention parking if first come first serve, if you don't get in early you have to pay for parking near by. Across the street in an empty lot homeless people have tents set-up, doesn't feel safe at all.

The hotel was ok and room was a good size and clean. The area around was dirty and lots of homeless. The parking is free but not guaranteed and very limited. If are looking for a good price and close enough to uber this will work. We wont stay here again due to the area and parking situation.

The bad reviews are unfortunately true. The room looked nothing like the photos. Hairs found on both the beds and in the shower. Horrible stay. Just pay the extra money go somewhere else. Complete waste of money.

Looks nothing like the photos. The place is horrible to say the least. So bad that I ended up leaving after 5 minutes after checking in. There was an event near by and it was the only one with vacancy now I understand why. Lost out on $250.
