Very pleased I’ll be the first to give them an updated review. My stay was pleasant. Very quiet, very cozy. The staff was extremely friendly. The air conditioning worked very well. I was able to stay in the same room both nights I stayed, on my way to Indiana and on my way back home, by simply asking. The only complaint I truly had, and I said this directly to the front desk, is that I wish the jacuzzi tubs were bigger because they definitely the space for a full sized one in the bathroom. Price was also reasonable. Hotel was also clean.

Horrible experience all the way around. Stinks, roaches, over priced, no working washer or dryer, some tvs won't work We stayed here last week. Paid for two nights. Soon as we got in the room instant regret. Smelled horrible, couldn't watch tv as the cable didn't work fully in our room so after telling the desk person and waiting over 4 hours I called back to the desk. Was forgotten so had to repack our belongings and move to another room. Even worse! The smell was horrible, filthy, roaches, very loud at this hotel, couldn't do laundry as the machines were broken (they looked like they were 100 years old) housekeeper was rude as can be. I was told the jacuzzi room had 6 SETS of towels and wash clothes there was 2 towels so I went to the front desk to ask for a couple more and the housekeeper (her and her man were just sitting at a table in the lobby-cushy job) she got upset for having to get up and get more towels. She rudely says only supposed to be 3 towels per room. Not her towels so what was the problem? Probably because she had to actually get up and move around God forbid but she is paid to do a job and not voice her opinion plain and simple Our keys were deactivated the next day and when we returned close to dinner time I had to go and reactivate our room cards now one would think housekeeping would have done their job while we were gone.. NOPE.. but then again that would involve her actually getting up and working. Now the desk lady (Missy) was great. (even though she's the one I called about the tv not working and she forgot for hours but other than that she was great. (Housekeeper and room was horrible and NOT worth $200 for the 2 nights PLUS a $50 deposit. For what? To spend a couple nights in a sh*t hole with roaches and the odors were disgusting OH and we had to buy light bulbs half the lamps didn't even have bulbs. Chair was stained so no sitting there the desk chair was torn pretty bad also. STAY away from the hole! Over priced and disgusting (better off sleeping in or behind a dumpster probably would have smelled better) One would think they would have offered a iscount or some kind of refund but nope just a greedy hotel owner charging insane prices and doesn't do anything to clean it or fix it up. Laundry can not be done here Oh and I was told there was a pool.. Was right outside the second room we had to move to and was told its closed due to it needs to be fixed.. So why charge so much to stay here? I am from Detroit (a bad part of Detroit) and I tell you what where I'm from was a lot safer smelled better and less noise.. Stay clear from this place!! Had they of offered a refund or some kind of discount maybe it wouldn't have been that bad (yea it would have) but they didn't! Owner needs to be forced to stay in one of those rooms for a week see how much they enjoy the smells roaches and everything horrid about this place

GO SOMEWHERE ELSE DO NOT STAY IN THIS FILTHY HOTEL ! I didn't read the reviews before staying. 1st room was all smoke smell, I asked for a 2nd room and it smells like dirty old man. Walls are filthy with some tan splatter. No one cleans the mirrors or TV screens, weird splatter on them. No a/c covering just bare metal. The TV doesn't work. Mr. PATEL THE OWNER take pride in your hotel this is outrageous. I definately will call corporate and tell them they need to buckle down on this hell hole !

NEVER book here We used Priceline to book this hotel and I should have known better. The beds were double instead of Queen sized, the room smelled of mildew, there was no desk chair or other furniture except the beds. The toilet was brown because they haven’t taken the time to de-lime. I was so disgusted that I didn’t even shower here. The “breakfast” that they offer is cereal, milk and something they are trying to pass off as coffee. Dirt tastes better then the coffee here. The only good thing was that the air conditioner worked well. The rest was atrocious. I’d rather sleep in my car next time than book at this hotel. The worker at the front desk had no identifying uniform or anything that suggested that she worked for the hotel. She was beyond rude and when I mentioned that I had a disabled person with me and that we’d prefer a ground level room she said no. This hotel should be shut down. It’s disgusting, not clean, the amenities are lacking, and the owners should be ashamed to have their name on this building.

Absolutely disgusting I’ve never written a review before, but omg this place is NASTY. We were driving through and my husband pulled over at this hotel. Had I gone in to rent the room, I would have known better than to stay here. Lobby is nothing compared to the room though. I walked in with my kids and literally turned right around and went to ask for a refund. There is no way I’d stay there, let alone my kids. Room smelled of weed. Someone had put something over the smoke detector so they could smoke unnoticed. It was still there. Floors were filthy. Sticky with shoe prints in the grime. Towel displayed on the back of the toilet was filthy. Looked like someone washed off mascara and it obviously hadn’t been laundered. Tub was atrocious. Floors were the filthiest floors I’ve ever seen. When I asked the front desk for a refund, they were very, very nice. They did offer me another room and took me to look at it. The floor did appear to be newer and it looked a little nicer overall. However, I inspected it and it was equally disgusting. They were very nice and gave us our cash back. It looks like people live in these rooms also. One room had a baby gate on the outside of the front door. Another had house plants and other decor in the window. Honestly, I am just blown away with how disgusting it was. I don’t understand how it’s not shut down. My husband has way lower standards than me when it comes to cleanliness and even he was disgusted and agreed there was no way we could stay here whether we got a refund or not. Long story short, don’t stay here unless you plan to bathe in bleach and get a shot of penicillin.
