Summary of reviews

Guests say
The majority of reviews were extremely negative, with many guests reporting that the property is no longer operating as a hotel and is instead being used as a shelter or is closed. Several reviewers felt scammed, unable to check in, or had to find alternative accommodations at the last minute. However, a small number of guests mentioned positive aspects such as convenient location, clean rooms, and comfortable beds. Some also appreciated the professionalism of the staff and the basic amenities provided. Overall, the negative experiences overwhelmingly outweighed the positives, but a few guests found value for budget stays and satisfactory comfort.

Cons (-) Very dirty environment. I won't even recommend my worst enemy to stay there, it was stinky from the lobi down to the room and very unsafe for my family so i decided to go search for a better place to spend the night with my family. It was a waste of my money because i didn't spend the night there

Pros (+) The front desk lady was nice.
Cons (-) Room dirt with hairs in bed. They change my room immediately but the next room had hair also. The location it's kinda ghetto and the people who where staying looks like drug abusers. Really smelly bad place. I feel sorry for the staff but it's the truth.
