Some.people. act like this is a.apt complex throwing trash everywhere and they act rude the house keeper she is nice and helps alot the front desk is just that the front desk
Location was excellent 5 minutes from the location I was working at. The rooms where accommodating with a fridge and a stove. Needs cookware though. Although the location was excellent for going to and from my work location the overall age of the building, which was very old, made for a loud night of trying to sleep, since it is located on a interstate access road.
It's not the Statler,Hilton,Stoneleigh P. or Four Seasons by any means. Older 'Freeway Motel' in a iffy at best neighborhood close to where Dallas & Duncanville come together. Tricky to actually get into due to bad planning of freeway exits,you'll need to know the exits & streets. Doesn't look like much,but it's not the worst place I've been travelling. Probably built back in the '70s by the paint & decor,could use a remodel soon just due to age,wear & tear? Didn't see any 'creepy crawlies',but I had bug spray ready if they showed? Room service every day about 11-12:00,as a 3rd shifter they always kept waking me up knocking!! (lol) Lot's of places to eat nearby,but also close to a near abandoned shopping mall. Stayed there due to my home catching fire and being rebuilt and being convenient to both my job and going to my house to check on the work being done. Only complaints I'd really have are (1) the faucet in my bathtub leaked bad,it sprayed water outside the tub/shower (2) it felt like there might have been a loose floor joist (I was on the 2nd floor) in one place (floor 'creaked' and felt as if not as solid right there) and (3) which is actually kind of funny...the door locks and handles worked backwards?? (Up to open,locked position is what normally would be unlocked on the deadbolt?) TV channel selections were just so-so as well,but also not a big TV watcher? Wi-Fi also a bit weak as well. All said,if you need a cheap place quick,(Like if your house catches fire!) and you aren't super picky,it's not as bad as a lot of places I've seen. Just be sure to lock your car!!!
Pet friendly, clean room, comfortable bed and the price is right. Whether for a night or longer, keep this place as an option. Security is on premises and always visible. Never felt not safe. I enjoyed my stay.
The rooms are spacious and better than adequate for my families needs. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and the price was just right. I can't believe it took me so long to land here , even if it finally is only temporary.
They are a work in progress. The clerks are always friendly and helpful. The location is right off of Highway 67 and Camp Wisdom. Behind 7 eleven. Some of the rooms aren't the greatest but it takes time. Some of them have been updated and have really good water pressure in the shower.
Low cost and affordable! It was enough space for my family & I. In our room was a stove with an oven. A full size fridge. Microwave. I like how the sofa let out to a queen size bed for my wife and me! Our children had two full size beds in their seperated bedrm with a door. Surrounding areas had a Regios, Taco Cabana, Taco Bell, 7-Eleven and more within a one block radius.
Suburban area with BBQ & Tex-Mex restaurants, plus walking & cycling in Oak Cliff Nature Preserve.
