"Not worth the price. We had to go to the front desk for linens for the sofa bed. The shower had a leak and sprayed water all over the bathroom floor. The elevator was slow. The complimentary breakfast wasn't ready at 6:30 AM, and the coffee table was filthy. We weren't impressed and don't recommend this hotel.2017-05-02"
"The blackout curtains in my hotel room didn't hang correctly, and the mirror was crooked. There were roaches in the bathroom. Look elsewhere.2016-10-06"
"The hotel room looked fresh and clean when we arrived, but we found a disturbing amount of hair, black specks, and lint on both beds. When we returned at night, there were no sheets on the bed and the phone didn't work, so we had to go to the front desk to resolve the problems. The fridge made a terrible ticking noise, so we didn't sleep well.2016-06-14"

"The maintenance man harassed us as soon as we checked in and moved the people in the next room because they weren't comfortable being next to us. Not a 5-star hotel, but we felt like we were targeted our entire stay. We didn't feel welcome or comfortable. Don't stay at this motel.2016-07-08"

At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
