I’ve stayed here many times and each time has always been great! The service has always been top tier GT and this time was no exception. The rooms have always been clean and well accommodated. The location is ideal as it’s close to many eateries and the university. It’s my go to when in town.

Horrible location
The location is very bad, right across from a neighborhood that looks unsafe. I would not stay at this location alone as a female or with my kids but I was with a large male and didn’t have to go out much - so it was okay. Pick a hotel further north.

Very disappointed. I stayed 2 nights. Did not have hot water. After leaving shower to run 10 min it was at best barely not cold. The hallway to my room was very dirty even had dead (thank goodness) bugs on carpet along with dirt and trash. The next morning I told the lady at the desk about not having hot water and that the carpets on the second floor had not been vacuumed and were very dirty. She called there maintenance man who after finding out I was in room 227 at the end of one hall said that it was just because I was so far away. I told her I waited 10 min. (Hard to say you care about conservation if you accept wasting water). She said the maintenance could not come back until the next day. When I got back that night and the next morning I still only had cool water and the same bugs were in the hallway. I will not be going back if the management doesn’t even care about general cleanliness
