Worth the money.
We were bit skeptical about the stay after reading the reviews. But for one night stay it wasn't bad. We were checked in by very friendly duo at reception desk and they upgraded us to suite without asking. They also assured us the parking is very safe for our car. The room was not bad, bed was comfortable, linens clean, the towels were nice smelling and clean. The room in general showed wear and tear but then we didn't pay top dollars for this one. The parking lot was very well lit so some of the reviews regarding car unsafe wasn't true. I think it was worth the money.

Staff is pleasant and helpful. Room ceiling was gross and falling down. Bathroom was dirty, and had pink hair on the counter. I have brown hair. Outside there were patrons smoking cigarettes and staring as you as you walked into the building.
