Pros:
The location is great. We were within 30 minutes of every place we needed to be. The Palisades Mall is literally a minute away, which is perfect if you plan on spending time there.
The front desk clerks are very friendly, respectful, and helpful.
Aesthetics:
The hotel itself smells pretty bad. It's obvious that they try to mask it with air fresheners but it's not pleasant.
The whole place looks run-down. In our room, the lampshades were broken, ceiling tiles were all water stained brown, the furniture was mismatched and beat up, no fixtures matched, broken tiles in the shower were replaced with tiles and grout that didn't match, sloppy paint job, etc. I appreciate that they do all the repairs themselves, but is it that hard to use the right colored grout? Or buy the matching silver faucet, not gold? Don't they see that it looks terrible like this? Appearance doesn't affect functionality, but it shows a lack of care and pride.
What more people care about:
-The outlet in the wall under the desk, where you would need to plug in a computer or something, was pushed so far into the wall that it wasn't usable.
-When I pulled back the covers, there was long black hair all over one of the pillows on the bed, gross.
-No door hanger to tell housekeeping that we didn't want service. Without a sign, we assumed they wouldn't come until we checked out, only to find that they had been in our room while we were gone. Yikes.
Was the hotel usable? Yes.
Will I come here again? Nooo.
