The door to our room did not have a lock, (the part where u put the key card) was not operational. So anyone could push the door open. We have to put chairs against it so it would've blow open..The top part latched

Disliked: Amenities
The building overall looked inconspicuous. There was a nice touch of small business vibe that I liked. The other tenants made me feel uneasy, especially with my wife around. This was confirmed by the police officer patrolling the parking lot, but it made me feel safer. Not bad for the price overall.

Stay away
The elevator is broken. They will not tell you. I found out after checking in on a non refundable week long horrible experience. I had informed them of my service animal. So, i have a bad leg with a service dog and they put me on the top floor, next to furthest room from the steps. The toilet had to be fixed twice while i was there. The ac unit sounds like it is going to explode. I checked in friday, by sunday, i asked for an accessible room due to my leg or if i could get a refund for the remaining time so i could stay somewhere accessible for me, they did not have any, only offered on same floor or 1 lower...still steps, not accessible and never commented on the refund. Room 311 smells like killer drugs. Not family, disabled, or dog friendly. It is not as advertised. DO NOT STAY HERE...unless you are looking for bad vices.

Property was as expected. Price was major attraction. I flew in, stayed overnight, and checked out the next morning. Problem was with reservations by Expedia. After making the reservation I was informed by Expedia that the full itinerary confirmation would be sent to me via email. I never got that itinerary. Went to the hotel and was told at the desk that they had no reservation on record. So I paid for the night directly to the hotel via my credit card. Next day I learned via my credit card that I was being charged twice for that room. Had a hell of a time over two days trying to get a refund from Expedia.

The property seemed unsafe. I waited outside for over 30min to check in. There was a sign on the door for late check-ins. I called and a woman answered that she would be in the way. While I waited outside in the cold someone working there peaked through the blinds of the locked door but made no effort to acknowledge my presence. When I finally got inside, I was told that my reservation was canceled due to overbooking. I would never in a million years stay there again!!!
