The person checking us in was unfriendly. The hotel had an odd, unpleasant smell that we noticed as soon as we walked down the hall to the elevator. The photos online were misleading and looked nothing like them in person. The room had a strong odor of Clorox that burned our eyes.

Got what I paid for. The room was fine. The TV channels were difficult to find.

Overall clean, smelled very strong of cigarettes and weed. Staff were super friendly, definitely clear why it was so cheap. Unupdated rooms, pool was closed down. Breakfast was not open when we left in the morning

I travelled with friends. I booked the same day and a guy from the hotel called me saying he was upgrading me (awesome) than we get there after 5p and the front desk gentleman(very nice guy!) says that room isn’t available at that time, so we got the suite. The room and halls smelled like weed and cigarette smoke nonstop. I wasn’t able to fall asleep until after 2a because it was loud in other rooms and in our hall. I had a pull out couch and there was no sheets for it so I tried calling down with the room phone but it didn’t work. The pictures look better than the actual place. The pool had a cover on when it was 80 degrees out. The price was good and location. Overall, I would not choose to stay here with my friends again. I’d rather have spent the money to stay where I’m comfortable and can actually get some rest before traveling all day.

Front desk employees were friendly. I wouldn’t stay here again. Room was clean but had a strong cigarette odor even though I booked for a non smoking room. Hotel guest were sketchy and were posted up outside like it was the trap spot late at night.

No one answers the phone in the morning. The head of operations manager talks about guns and shooting people. The couch had stains. Terrible stay.

The hotel was last minute booking. The check-in was easy and the staff very friendly and accommodating.
Everything seemed clean, but you could tell that the property was "dated"- room just had an old feeling- could be updated.
However, it served the purpose, and i was not unhappy.

Bathroom cleanliness was poor. Found an old set dentures between bed and night stand and the mattresses had divots on the sides and mounds in the middle. Front desk service was pleasant

The front desk person was very nice. The hallways reeked of weed. The carpet in our room had stains all over it and the room smelled like mushrooms. If you stay here ask for the top floor, because you can hear every step the people above you make. You could see through the cracks in the door, so it was loud and the smell came into the room.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and unfortunately, it was far from a pleasant experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff was less than friendly, often demanding to see certain items rather than politely asking. We felt unwelcome from the start, which set the tone for the rest of our stay.
The lobby had a strong smell of marijuana, which was off-putting, and when we were handed our room key, the staff member didn't even inform us of our room number. The elevator was dirty, with graffiti on the buttons and the same unpleasant smell lingering inside.
Although the room itself was clean, we couldn't maintain a comfortable temperature. It was either too hot or too cold, and the traffic noise was very noticeable due to poor sound insulation. To top it off, the morning staff was rude when we asked about breakfast options, making us feel even more unwelcome.
With so many other hotels in the area, I would strongly recommend exploring other options. Overall, this was just a bad experience, and I won’t be returning.

Sonji was very personable and helpful. I had my dog with me and he assisted me with items I had to bring inside. Good conversation and a nice, friendly guy.
Only issue was that microwave nor the phone were working in the room. The room was otherwise very comfortable, quiet, clean and sanitary.
I requested a hair dryer and initally there was none available. However, within the hour, one was delivered to my room.
I didn’t catch the name of the gentleman at the desk upon checkout, but he, too, was nice and friendly.
Btw, this property was formerly a Marriott, so I had an upscale stay on a Red Roof budget!
I definitely recommend and will be back whenever I visit my hometown, the Bull City!

I tossed and turned all night. I thought my allergy was flaring up, coughing and sneezing throughout the night. I woke up took a shower and opened the curtains only to glance over at the air-conditioned unit. It was covered with Black mold, along with the curtain and the side of the desk that was in from of it. I have a upper respiratory condition that was obviously affected.

The hotel is dated and could use a remodel to the rooms. The carpet is very worn and in rough condition. The couch was scary. We didn’t sit on it. Bed was comfortable enough. The pillows need to be replaced. Not enough toilet paper. No lotion in the room. There was yelling and fighting outside in the parking lot every night which disturbed sleep. Will not stay there again.

The hotel is old and dirty. The toilet ran constantly. Lots of noise - doors banging g and people yelling in the parking lot. The police was actually called one of the days. Would never stay at that property again or recommend to anyone to stay there.

I have stayed here quit few times but this was by far my worst stay at a hotel. Ac would not cool room. It reeked of pot. The matress was worn out completely. I left my head phones on the bed. Went back to get them after my appt. 3 hrs later and the room was cleaned and my headphones were gone and not turned into lost and found. Im very disappointed and will be taking my business somewhere else. I stay here like 6 plus times a year. Person at front desk did take my number and let me look in room. It was a 75.00 pair of head phones. Hope they enjoy them they were new.

There was so much I enjoyed about this property. It was clean, the towels were soft, the room was clean. The shower was older (not like in the pics) but the water was good and hot when needed. I had no issues. It was quiet and easy.
