6/10 Good

Room was basic but the bed was comfortable. The fridge ended up freezing my leftover food that I was saving. The remote did not have any batteries in it. The handle in the bathtub/shower was incredibly hard to turn on and off. The elevator was broken and the key cards were hard to use, especially the one on the outside door. For the price and location, it was fine for what I needed it for.

Kind of sketchy, but so close to the college that it's worth it. The water got hot fast and the AC worked great. Security needs some improvement and they need to check in on the appliances.

The smell of weed and mold soon as you step into tge building. The room appeared clean but roaches greeted me at the door and was with me in the restroom every visit at night. Fridge didnt work. I didnt report it because i was only there a few hours. Cold night so I set my yogurt drink in the window. Shower curtain showed mold stains. Worst hotel ever

Im sure 30 years ago this was a premier hotel to stay at. The lobby was very elegant. The pool and hot tub were empty. The air-conditioning was poor. But the price was excellent. Clean sheets, clean towels great staff

This was a value pic for me. My favorite part for the stay was the sign that read this is not a five star hotel. Their self rating was two stars. I appreciate the honesty. Staff was very kind and professional.

Not so comfy.

It was surrounded by hoodlums and crackheads. I checked in and checked out within the hour because it felt unsafe. Staff was great though!

2/10 Poor

Staff was friendly and informative. The room and halls smelled like a cigarette was lit all day long. There was roaches in the fridge and bathroom. The microwave was dirty. The fridge was very dirty, unplugged and had bugs inside. The tv only had 8 working chanels. The bathroom sink had a cigarette shoved inside and it sprayed water from the back of the faucet when turned on. The floors had crumbs from previous tenats i guess. There was a 10 minute window to refuse to stay there but with no other available rooms anywhere else, we didnt have a choice. Wont be back and do not recommend at all. Especially with kids

Check in was no issue at all . The photos don’t really match with the actual hotel . The hallways are dirty , anyone can get into the parking lot . The walls were kind of thin cause you can hear the conversation from the other side . The furniture is old and outaded .

2/10 Poor

The people were kind and I appreciate it, unfortunately that’s the only thing that would good about this place. There were bugs everywhere, wherever you looked you’d see a bug of some kind. It was extremely dirty, it was not cleaned and our sheets were stained. There where so many roaches. Whenever I opened the bathroom door there were five I would kill on the counter and baby ones that lined the shower curtain. This happened multiple times a day. There were ants that were also everywhere in the bathroom and crawling all up and down the shower curtain along with tiny baby cockroaches. I had to plug up the drains with towels to stop the roaches from coming in. Which only worked a little bit. It stinks like a porta potty all throughout the hotel. Sleeping in the bed made my whole body and head itch like crazy the whole time I was there. The microwave had no plate in it and it was hard to heat up our food. The AC didn’t really work. Another thing is I was reading the reviews to see if I was the only one experiencing this and I’ve seen multiple responses to people’s valid upset and talking about their bad experiences at the hotel where the owner is very mean to them and says things like “I wish you had left at check out” “well put you on a do not rent to list because of your review” instead of talking accountability and responsibility and fixing the issues. That’s so rude and unprofessional and I hate seeing that. It just needs to be properly maintained and cleaned and it’s not.

Needs work

The room needs major renovations and new furniture. The tub was very uninviting and i chose not to use it. The TV had no signal even ater checking the cable connection. Non working elevator. The bed was clean and comfortable and the room was large.

2/10 Poor

Both employees that I spoke to were great. I feel like the customer service is really good however the room was very dirty and was the home to a huge family of cockroaches that were on the bed, climbing the walls, and calling the bathroom, their homebase. The parking lot was a little sketchy but overall not bad. I truly believe that if there wasn’t a bug problem, it would’ve been fine but when you’re ready to go to sleep, and there are cockroaches in your bed, it’s kinda hard to sleep. That was the final straw for my family and I. We immediately packed up and went down to the front counter to check out and hopefully get a refund. The employee was very nice and said that she had processed a partial refund and I should be getting that refund within the next few days hopefully that goes through.

The elevator is broke so you have to use the stairs. The stairs appear to have been smeared with, what I can only assume to be leaking, rotten liquid from trash being hauled out from the residents that live there. I overheard another couple checking in the next day and heard the front desk inform them they had a half hour to change their mind and receive a refund. Had I been given this option I would have jumped at the chance! Our fridge didn't work and the cold stuff we had purchased before learning it didn't work, spoiled. Also, there are bugs! The sheets were clean, and the be was comfy. I'm Originally from Fresno. This used to be a nice area, but it is now overrun with addicts and the homeless. I haven't stayed in a place like this since I was a teenager. I can't believe this place is an option in a booking site.
