10/10 Exceptional

I liked how I had a microwave and a mini refrigerator in my room. Plus a walk in shower.

10/10 Exceptional

Was in town at the Golden1 Center for a four day event. For the location and ease of access to the major city places, it’s conveniently located. The pricing was right, and if you are in town for official business and little time to spend at the hotel save for sleeping then this place is pretty a great deal. Carry some cash. The owners (couple) very personable and responsive. Would surely return.

Because it was so small I didn't expect it to be so charming. Though going through rentiavion I felt at home would stay again Bathroom clean very important
Craig, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

The check-in was pleasant and the location was good, however, the room was muggy and reaked of cigarettes. The air conditioner (mounted high on the wall) never blew out cold (or even cool) air. To stay cool, I slept with a damp towel as a blanket (which definitely helped).
Sophia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean but noisy.

Internet wasn't working, so they couldn't scan my drivers license. They accommodated my desire for a non-smoking room, which was nice, but it shared a door with owners unit so I could hear everything. Very noisy until 11pm.

It was a peaceful stay beside the traffic it was very quiet the only problem i had was some guy knocking on my door claiming his card would not open his door .i told him i could not help him and told him he had to go to the office. The staff was very friendly and was quick to get me registered.the bed was a little squeaky but i was still able to sleep well
Jerry, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Friendly staff, but room for improvement.

The room reeked of cigarette smoke and whatever chemicals they used to mop the floor with. When booking I wasn't given the option of a smoking or non smoking room so I assumed it would be non smoking. There was no exhaust fan in the bathroom, but a hole in the ceiling where one used to be. There were cigarette burns all over the bathroom sink. The bathroom was very small, when sitting on the child sized toilet my knees were nearly touching the wall, and I'm about 5'7". The shower head was in a wierd place and made it hard to use. The lights outside our room were very bright white LED's which gave the area a prison feel. There was garbage strewn about the sidewalk in front of the dumpster, but someone did pick it up at one point. I was charged $20 cash for adding a friend last minute to my room, as well as a $20 deposit which was given back to me at checkout, but wasn't mentioned when during booking. Despite all of this, the manager was very friendly and easy to deal with, and readily available to help when I accidentaly locked my key in the room. I probably won't stay here again and would gladly spend double to stay at the Sheraton or Hyatt next time I'm in town.

The office was not too promising, I had to ring several times to get a response, and then he did not seem to know how to find my reservation on the computer. He then asked for a $20 refundable deposit, but I didn't have any cash, so he seemed to let it go. Hard to hear him through the glass window. The room was recently renovated and mostly quite acceptable, though there were no lamps in the room, only very bright overhead lights or darkness. I was there for one night and got a decent night's sleep, my expectations were not very high.

Get what you pay for ... the room is smaller than a typical Motel6's ... very small shower stall and equipped with a microwave and a small refrigerator. I paid a little less than I would have to pay at Motel6 so I am satisfied.

Bathroom toilet seat broken and comes off completely. No toilet paper on the roll. No shower curtain. Hair on the bathroom floor and room needs a deep cleaning
Penny, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I want to formally request a refund/discount due to unsafe and unsanitary conditions in my room. I’ve taken photos documenting the issues. The condition of the room does not match what was advertised, and I’ve even been required to move equipment myself, which is unacceptable.

2/10 Poor

Bad smell, dirty, sink didn’t work, muggy room. Sketchy area and our window was shattered and only “fixed” with tape. If you use Expedia, don’t buy a protection stay plan because even if you have it they won’t offer you a refund. Staff was decent enough but overall a dirty hotel. It’s worth the extra money to go to a slightly more expensive place. It was gross to even breathe in the room
Jaida, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst place I’ve been to.

Worst hotel I have ever set foot in. The office was the size of a broom closet and felt like a dmv kiosk. The room itself smelled terrible. Like year old rotting weed. The bathroom smelled worse!! The bed was terribly small. Idek what size it was but it was barely a full size if at all for 2 guests. The lights were terrible; barley working. I couldn’t fathom the thought of sitting on the bed let alone spending the night! There were people there chilling in their beds with the doors wide open and pile of beer cans on the floor like that was normal. Me and my partner are from run down cities and can and have dealt with run down places, we can just though it out. But we checked out no more than 3 minutes later after seeing that room! Not exaggerating.
Ana, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Did the job of innkeeping well.

The hotel was excellent for the price charged. It wasn't the Waldorf but was a affordable, convenient, and welcome place to stay in a time when it seems every room in town over charges by 20 or 30 %. When lookad at with that in mind it was 5 star.

Ocean, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disappointed

The rooms looked nothing like the photos, it was in a bad area, trash and non clean rooms outdated, they also charged 20.00 deposit cash they emphasized, the put me in a handicap room. The smoke detector was gone with exposed wires, stained comforter, stained furniture, broken ac that didn’t work total of 6 tv channels, but said they had dish network, it was a TOTAL DISASTER
