First of all, the room was as nice as some places I’ve stayed that cost twice as much. I slept extremely well, and the front desk was friendly and helpful upon arrival. It’s also a short drive to the casino, if that’s your thing. I chose this as a stop over on the way to my primary location and I am a solo female traveler.
I read some of the reviews after I stayed actually and some had some strong negative feedback. Does it smell like weed? Yes, very much so. But so do many places I’ve stayed that were more expensive.
Yes, there’s a second building that is not attached to the main one. I did not have any issues with the security lock to enter the building. Were there a lot of people hanging out in the parking lot? Yes. One lady was sleeping in her car. The few people I did interact with didn’t bother me and seemed nice enough.
They obviously do have safety concerns of some kind, because even at 8pm the front desk had to unlock the door to check in. They had the sliding doors locked. Alright fair, given the number of people wandering the parking lot and nearby, I could understand why.
The surrounding area is run down and coming back from the casino at 2am, there was what appeared to be a gang on their bicycles hanging out in the middle of the road. There was also a police car parked nearby, so I guess they had it under control. Again, no one bothered me.
Would I stay there again? Sure, if it was just a one night stop over. The room was great and clean.
