Find somewhere else
Non smoke rooms smell like smoke, customer service sucks they think you’re threatening them because you speak firmly.
Music is played all night, during the day there’s barley anyone and at night time people use this motel for drugs and sex

Big updated rooms and bathrooms are a plus. Convenient airport shuttle service is available. At first a staff member couldn't find my reservation, but the morning person was very pleasant and helpful and straightened everything out. I just wish there was a hairdryer available in the bathroom.

I booked this place looking at reviews and had high hopes. Unfortunately it was the exact opposite. The place was dirty, blankets with burn marks in them. Empty kicthen with no amenities despite being an extended stay facility, which I paid to upgrade to. Denied access to the advertised shuttle service. Very disappointed and would not book again. WiFi was also extremely weak.

Rudest receptionist ever
Do not ever stay here! For your security. Hotels.com if you keep playing with the algoritim of your ratings and offer places like this with a rate of 8 and above, I will consider stop using your services again because its dissapointing to expect a Very Good place and arrive to somewhere where the only you want to do is runaway
