Exceptional

Nice staff, but not nice...

Liked: I really liked the people working there, they were very friendly! Also liked having a fridge and stovetop (note that you need to bring your own pan / utensils).
Disliked: The room had this really strong and persistent chemical smell (even with the window open) which I think was used to cover up something else, I’m just not sure what. One of the kitchen cabinets was also missing a door and the building kinda felt a little sketchy. The room was really cheap and I usually like the value of Motel 6’s, but I wouldn’t stay at this location again.

Bad

Liked: The staff is amazing
Disliked: There are too many roaches couldn't stay had to check out around midnight

Poor

HORRENDOUS, NEVER AGAIN!

Liked: Absolutely nothing.
Disliked: Don’t stay here! We felt very insecure in this hotel, since the moment we arrived we noticed the neighborhood was not the best and a lot of suspicious people were going in and out the lobby, staring at us and our belongings while we were getting our luggage out of our car.Initially we received the wrong room, located in the third floor, which at first sight was HORRENDOUS, it had a strong smell as if someone had just smoked on it, the bedsheets were dirty with a lot of stains, the curtains were literally ripped off, the furniture was very damaged, the kitchen was everything but clean and the floor itself had several other low level guests, in the stairs we ran over the same three men that had been staring at us in the parking lot when we first arrived, we were scared for our safety once again.We went back to the reception and asked for a new room and they offered a room in the second floor, the cleaning improved a bit but still we found some cockroaches in the bathroom. We barely slept that night as we were scared about someone getting into the room, we left our car in the parking lot expecting the worst too. We went out of there as soon as we could.This hotel clearly offers long stay rates which are very convenient for homeless, so you can find all kind of people in this place that does not make you feel safe at all, literally Cecil Hotel 2.0.

Pleasant

Don't stay here if you're...

Liked: The room was very clean and looked nice
Disliked: The pool was closed And look like it had been for years.The elevator was broken as well. There were homeless hanging out outside of the hotel. And the people staying in the hotel seem to be people trying to get back on their feet. TheHallways reeked of weed. You could hear people yelling at each other inside of their rooms as well as people knocking on others' doors this guy kept kept walking up and down the hall and starred at my daughter as we passed by. Iwas by myself without my husband and my and with my 2 young daughters, and I did not feel safe staying at this hotel.

The worst motel I have...

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: The motel is old and decrepit, with apparently little effort to maintain it. The full size refrigerator did not work and several lights were inoperative. Cockroaches scurried for cover, when I turned on the light upon entering.
