Please don't choose this place, save yourself from a headache. The lobby is close so you need to do a line outside the building. Once you are checked in the room was fil

Smelly room
The hotel has a different name. My reservation wasn't in their system even though I made it 5 weeks in advance. The room smelled of mold and had cigarette burns on every piece of furniture...and it was supposed to be a non-smoking room!

Small, dirty, roach infested.
The room was dirty, the bathroom floor was cracked and warped, no toilet paper and roaches everywhere. When I voiced my complaints I was basically ignored... I wouldn't stay here again even if it was free.

rooms are fine. neighboorhood is ehh
the rooms weren't all that bad as far as catching a disease or anything, but a lot of the rooms were under construction and were vacant. the bathroom was ruff and the bed sheets were wet but over all bed and room was as expected if not alittle better then I was anticipating. the room phone didn't work which bothered me because if I needed to call to the front desk about the drug deal that was going on outside my room next to my Harley was really bothering me and I wanted to complain. also the service for the hotel was poor and things like taping over the old managers name plaque and writing your own in sharpie is utmost professionalism and makes it seem like your at a very legitimate establishment. I did survive and thankfully I didn't come out to a bike on cinder blocks with parts missing. overall the rooms are fairly okay considering the price. they just need to hire nighttime security, or place a glock where the fire extinguishers should be for potential jackings that may occur. the hotel was the closest and affordable to the venue I was going to at the mid florida credit union amphitheater which made it very convenient.

Riv det ned!
Skandaløst hotel. Intet varmt vand eller håndklæder. Beskidt toilet, nonsmoking rum stank af tobak fra sidste gæst og hotel manageren gemte sig hver gang vi kom til receptionen

Terrible
Basic requirement anywhere you stay is cleanliness, this hotel was a nightmare. Hole in the wall covered up with blue tape. Bed sheets looked stained and whites were now grey. We could not shower because the bath tub was dirty. This needs to improve. Not to mention there is a 10 dollar deposit for your keycard that has to be cash. Their ATM doesn't work so they to us to drive across the street to use their ATM.

Disgusting
You shouldn't even advertise this place. It is a complete disaster. Very unpleased with my stay. Beds smelled disgusting, bathroom was falling apart, towels were dirty. I stayed 2 hours and left to another hotel. Extremely unhappy.
