Horrible area. Deposit was $250 and it takes between 7-14 days after checkout for it to be returned if paid by debit. Im a trucker and tried to pay by cash but later found out couldnt be refunded the cash due to me needing to check out early morning because no cleaning staff would be available to inspect the room to later in the day so the night before had to retrieve the cash and place the deposit on my card and still havent received it back 7 days later.
