If you want a dirty hotel, “for hire ladies” filling the lobby and bar, dirty sheets, and a xxx rated movie playing on your tv when you turn it on….. this is the place for you. I couldn’t even put my bags down. I checked out and paid for a different hotel quickly. Unfortunately they would not honor a refund and Expedia was not willing or able to help. Stay away from this place

I have never seen so many ‘ladies of the evening’ in one location. Certainly a good location for men to have a good time.

Pleasurable stay

The stay was great except for couple of things: The shower head was simply terrible and the water adjustment was unpredictable as it would get hot with a slight turn. Also, the water pressure in the shower was very low.

I had a fantastic stay! The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. The location was perfect—quiet but still close to everything. The manager was friendly, responsive, and made check-in super easy. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
