It was alright good service just wwnt to pick up a friend.
Great service... The front desk lady was very nice.
The lobby was rather dirty and smelled of smoke, and it’s a bit busted up but the room was clean and I had a comfy stay. I don’t have super high standards. I only care that the room is clean and they met my expectations there.
I'm a regular and will continue coming back. They treat me well here.
Nice and clean place. Great for those on a budget ($70.00 flat for a Saturday stay).
Great hotel for anybody coming in or out of Crystal Airport. Wonderful, quiet and respectful Indian owners.
One of the best companies I ever enjoyed their services..my loads were delivered on time and safe
Yeah, the place is "broke in" and a little smoky... Front Desk is polite. The carpet and bed was clean. The vending machines work. It's 2 stars, if I'm paying $169 a night... But, it's HALF THAT. So, don't stress, you'll be fine.
