I loved the front desk check in clerk Azia maybe, she was awesome. The neighborhood is sketchy with the Gentlemen Club and a sketchy plaza behind the Red Lion.

I don't have high expectations for places like these...its affordable yet close enough to uber to the city center. The staff is what makes the place. They were all incredibly friendly and always helpful. I liked the quite pool area and the complimentary airport shuttle.

Wasn't horribly... though I don't think, I'd stay here again. Don't think, they should charge people for meals. Who are staying at the hotel. Just my thoughts though. Thanks for the chance to stay with y"all.

The lobby was hot, the thermostat showed 82 and made for an uncomfortable wait to check in. The mini fridge didn’t work, gaps in the carpet, parts of the stucco walls were cracked and peeling apart, the bathroom vanity top had dropped about an inch and the toilet seat was broken. The phone in the room didn’t work, so we couldn’t contact the front desk. Maybe add more handicap spots near the front of the building.

The property looked to be in the process of getting better, but the rooms needed a deep cleaning. The area is very unsafe, as addicts are nearby the parking lot getting high.

Decent place to stay short term. Close to highway and variety of places to eat. I went to ihop instead of their restaurant that was a little pricey for me. Room had a fridge and microwave but the only mirror was in the bathroom. Bring your own soap and shampoo Very seemingly unsafe environment I was approached by a man in the parking lot asking for money. Parking lot shared with a Hookah Lounge and Gentlemens Club. Area smells like marijuana. Laundry room has one washer and one dryer that was broken. Business center had no computer just a printer. The interior renovated section is the nice picture they post on their website. My door key did not work so I was given a room in the area that was not renovated when you opened the curtains their was a brick wall. They put a credit card hold for $75 upon arrival and say it will be released 3-5 business days after you leave but can provide nothing in writing verifying what they are saying.

It is convenient to the airport and right off 77. Restaurant attached and a couple more you can walk to. Good value for the price, but rooms are older and need some TLC here and there.
