To tired to wait, for the extra steps
You have to go to another motel to get the keys and wait nearly an hour to check in because the hotel agent at the desk is responding to a third party online and can't view your check-in automatically so you have to wait after a long trip; One is tired! But after that, the place is very pleasant.

Pros: * The property itself is clean and appears well-maintained. * Communication via text was polite and respectful. Cons: * Misleading "free parking" advertisement. * Parking is assigned and based on availability, but this is not clearly communicated until late in the day. * Late communication regarding parking arrangements, making it impossible to address issues before arrival. * Lack of on-site support, making it difficult to resolve issues promptly. * Street parking is often full, leaving guests with no viable parking options. * Responses via text message, while polite, were unhelpful and dismissive. * The overall check in process seems to be done remotely, and if there is a problem it is not helpful.

That was scary
Nobody ever acknowledged me, it was an apartment space and I didn’t know what to do. Thankfully the motel I had to find honored my reservation

2/10 Poor

Not as advertised
This is not a hotel. There is no lobby, no person to check-in with. They list free parking, except all the spots in the lot are paid for and reserved. Parking is on the street which is used by the local residents. It took 10 minutes of driving around the neighborhood to find a spot. The layout of the building is very strange. Many exit doors with no ability to use the keycard to get in. Although my unit was on the first floor, the only way to get to it required me to go up to the second floor. I then had to meander through hallways to the other side of the building and go back downstairs. My unit was right next to an exit door, so leaving was easy. The only lights that worked was a bedside lamp and the bathroom light. No bath towels only 2 washclothes and 2 hand towels. And no one to call to fix the situation!
