So cool

Love this place! It’s easy and comfortable and they have a cool bar/lounge (Burgundy Lounge). No restaurant on site, but there are places nearby to drive to (King BBQ and Rebel Tequila, and Kitchen Junction, to name a few!). Area looks a bit dodgy but it’s not- it’s just not ruined like the rest of CHS. Enjoy your stay x

I liked the property. I liked that I did not need to interact with anyone. The Caribbean restaurant down the street was excellent. There is a bar/night club on the property and my neighbors were noisy which was not what i needed after driving. Not the properties fault.

All communication done via email and text message, never saw or spoke with any staff member. The room was nicely remodeled, the bed was super comfy but soooo high. Would stay again.

Everything is good except the unsafe location; parking spot is private and safe, so if with a car this motel is perfect
