“Filthy”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 February 2010
2
people found this review helpful

Although the bathroom was clean and the staff at the desk pleasant, our room was filthy. The inside of the bedspread was visibly spoiled and blood stained. It clearly had not been cleaned. The box springs which were visible were equally filthy and stained. I was afraid to look at the mattress. The pillows were barely usable. I left for the airport a couple of hours early just to get out of the place. The floors and elevator had not been cleaned. There is no airport shuttle.

“Basic but just what we needed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2009

We booked a single night before an early flight through Priceline but was a bit aprehensive after reading some of the reviews. As it turns out the room was basic but just fine. Overall the room was clean and there was a wonderful oatmeal/almond soap in the shower.

The front desk clerk was very helpful when we arrived and offered to print our boarding passes for us (no business center). The only con is that I asked for 2 extra pilows but there was only one available at 10pm.

“It's not that bad!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 July 2008

I booked a room at this hotel through Hotwire and was very apprehensive after reading the reviews on this site. Well, the hotel really isn't that bad! I didn't have any of the problems that people have listed here. First of all, the staff had absolutely no difficulty with checking in someone who had prepaid. I was in my room within minutes.

The room was at least average, possibily even above average. The size was nice, with an efficiency kitchen (including a full refrigerator). The room was quite clean and had no odor whatsoever. And there were no stains on the carpet. Everything looked reasonably new.

Look, if I were judging this as a five-star hotel, I might have to raise some complaints. There were little cracks in the sink by the drain. There was a small area of chipped paint on the wall in the bathroom. The TV is small, maybe about 21 inches. But that's all I'd have to gripe about. This place doesn't pretend to be a five-star hotel (and doesn't charge like one, either). For what it is, it's at least acceptable. I'd have no problems staying here again.

“Really Terrible”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2008
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed here because for some reason everything else in the area was completely sold out. I booked two rooms for my family and friends. We checked in to find one of the rooms (on the 4th floor - they did not look renovated; another reviewer said there was a renovation going on) to find it horribly dirty with cigarette ashes, burned matches and food debris all over; the refrigerator was filthy. We were told there were no other rooms available and that someone would clean it. It didn't help much but we agreed to stay there since we had no choice. The hallways were horribly dirty and the carpets were stained. The bedding had holes and cigarette burns in it. One of the beds didn't have a dust ruffle on it and the box spring was disgustingly grungy. The carpets in the rooms were stained and gross. The windows either did not open or were broken on their tracks. We opened one and had to use a book to prop it open. There were very minimal dishes and utensils (dirty anyway) and no dish soap, no dishwasher. The bathroom was very tiny and run down. But, everything in the area was sold out so we went to our event. We returned late at night (there is no one at the desk from 11 pm till 6 am) and within a few minutes my friend saw 2 cockroaches crawling on the dresser near her items! ewww. We totally freaked out (well, one person didn't) and decided we couldn't stay ... we tried calling around but no one had a room! We finally found a room a few miles away at a Quality Inn which by now looked like the Taj Mahal to us. We had to drag children out late at night in order to switch hotels. I have traveled extensively and on a very low budget when I was younger and I have never been in a *chain* hotel that was this bad...it is hard to believe it is part of a chain, really. I did get our money refunded with ease by calling the property the next day , but really, just stay away no matter what. We paid $105 or so a night, by the way. I never expected the level of creepy crawly horror that I experienced at this place!! Stay Away!!

  • Liked — that they refunded my money
  • Disliked — read the review; the accommodation is a disaster.

“Just don't show up late...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 June 2007
2
people found this review helpful

Pros:
- Inexpensive; I think I paid $47 on Priceline
- Convenient; a quick and easy drive from the airport
- Friendly Staff

Cons:
- Though near the airport, it is not necessarily easy to find [expanded explanation below]
- A little dirty and worn
- Shady area
- Possible Bed Bugs

I stayed for one night - I was moving to Philly and was closing on a home the next day (originally from Alabama). I wasn't looking for something nice, just something cheap, and ESA was my ticket in. I was able to priceline a room here for less than $50 and didn't have to drive far to arrive at the hotel (which helped, since my plane landed close to midnight due to weather delays).

Unfortunately, this hotel is behind the Extended Stay Deluxe - same company, different hotel. So, one may be fooled into thinking that the ESD is the ESA, when it is not. So don't waste your time waiting at the ESD door (that no one answered...for an hour...at around midnight).

When I left the hotel, I had small red, itchy bumps that weren't there before arriving - I cannot make a guarantte that these were bugs, but they seemed very suspicious in their nature.

Other than that, the room seemed to be reasonably clean (I didn't trust the coffee maker though) and it was a well enough place to stay for one night. Definitely a "no frills" hotel, but if you're in town for work or just for an evening, it may be worth a look (but then, it may not be too...).

  • Liked — Proximity to airport
  • Disliked — a little dirty.
