Rodney, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

We had a great one-night stay, the staff was very friendly and welcoming and the room was spacious with a decent kitchen setup. The only issue we had was that there was some hair underneath the extra blanket on the bed which was gross, but overall it was a good stay!

This was my first time staying at a MyPlace Hotel. I loved that I had a stove top, full size fridge, microwave in my food that allowed me to bring my own food and cook. It saved me a lot of money on eating out. Nice staff, clean rooms. I had an issue with my door but I got it to work. No complaints

Always liked My Place. Appreciate the full size fridge and the sink, spacious rooms and also like the towel hooks next to the shower door. One thing that's strange is you have dishwashing liquid but there's no dishes.
