    The reviews I read about this hotel was right on the money. I checked out of this hotel within 15 minutes of checking in. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. I did not feel safe in this hotel. The door to the room was unlocked upon arrival. The lock was a push button lock. I was very disappointed.

    Reviewed by Sharon of Asheville on Jun 7, 2009

    The picture of the hotel is really beautiful. I was wondering why they only had one picture of the hotel (the outside); after checking into the hotel I now understand why. I checked into the hotel and went to my room. The door to the room was unlocked. When I walked into the room I was in shock. This was a no smoking room and had cig burns in the rug. The mildew smell was very powerful. I checked right back out of that hotel. Never before had I checked into a hotel and checked back out within 15 minutes, never until my stay at this hotel.

    the room i was originally given hadn't even been cleaned! they had to call around to the only housekeeper that was on duty to find a clean room. that room was not even decent. the towels had hair in them, the walls had holes, and the paint was chipping. the cover had blood stains on it. i was not impressed, my hard earned money was wasted.

    The hotel was okay. There is no breakfast. The bed was very hard. It looked like the door to our hotel had been previously kicked down. a large chunk of wood was missing from the door frame at the locks. I probably would not stay here again but it was fine for what we needed: a place to sleep.

    The room had the convenience of home in that it had a equipped small kitchen area and a laundry room. These items help to save me some much need dollars. I was able to prepare quick meals and take care of dirty laundry. When I told friends and other family members about all the room offered and the price, they just couldn't believe it. So, I was very happy and please with my stay. The staff/employees at the hotel were very polite and when I had a problem with some they were right there to take care of it. Thanks Hotel.com

    Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 2, 2008

    This place is in a scary area. The taxi driver didn't want to leave us there. The person at the front desk was very nice, but she told me she was switching me to a non-smoking room, and when I got up there it was definitely a smoking room. My clothes smelled like smoke for days after. It was old and outdated. And the bathroom was dirty. Don't be fooled by the picture of the outside. There's nobody in the office before 7am, and they're hard to get a hold of on the phone. It was the cheapest place, but it cost just as much to get out there in a taxi as it does to stay there. You could end up spending less money at a nicer hotel close by that has a shuttle from the airport.

    I liked the closeness to the airport yet far enough away to avoid the noise and crowds. The outside is nice, the front desk is very helpful. Our room was a nice size with small kitchenette which was very helpful. The carpet was filthy, the bedside lamp was shorted out and the front desk hadn't any other available. The bedding and linen were very clean and sterile. If the carpet were cleaned and routine maintenance performed, I would give a better rating. I would then say it is a nice option for the price.

    Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Apr 23, 2008

    The hotel was cheap, but I would have rather paid $20 more for a better room. Check-in was ok, but our room was not good. It smelled very bad and the bathroom sink did not drain and there was a bug in the tub. After, checking in we went to dinner. When we returned our key would not open our door. Turns out, someone had put a pin lock on our door, mistaking us for someone who had not paid rent. The shower didn't work very well; the knobs barely turned. When we went to check-out, there was no one there. We ended up locking our key in the room and "high-tailing" it out of there. There were very sketchy-scary people walking around the hotel. It seemed like the hotel allowed bad quality people to stay extendedly. I would not recommend this hotel.
