Pros: 1. Reasonably priced 2. Clean and comfortable room: bed, bathroom, kitchen 3. Pleasant and helpful staff 4. Walking distance shopping and restaurants 5. Pet-friendly (with deposit) 6. Mostly peaceful / quiet, no riff-raff hanging around in halls or outside 7. Free Wi-fi - high speed for a fee 8. New flat screen TV with free cable (dish?) Cons: 1. The office is not open 24 hours. Closes on 7 PM Saturday, and doesn't open again until 11 AM Monday. If you get locked out, you may or may not receive help during that time. Also, any room issues may not be attended to during the closed hours. They give you a number to call, but it is not always answered. 2. If you're waiting for your paycheck to deposit, they aren't very patient about waiting for your room payment. It's best to schedule your due day to one several days after you get paid. Otherwise, the nice staff will turn not-so-nice ... they may give you a hassle or threaten you. 3. Not a good place to conduct business meetings, or meet with clients. Explanation: the facility has bad reviews posted on several sites. Unfortunately, most of those are for another facility that is about a mile way on CHESTER RD. New customers and reviewers get the two mixed up. This facility is on CHESTERDALE RD. - see the cause for the mix-up? If you give GPA directions to a client or business associate, the bad reviews pop up with the directions. This makes them leery of meeting with you. I had meetings canceled without much notice, and discovered that this was the reason why (I had to drag the reason out of them - they were reluctant to say.). Apparently the other facility is really bad. it's unfortunate that it is confused with this one, which is quite nice for the money. 4. They are remodeling this facility one room at a time. Sometimes it is noisy during the day, due to that. 5. According to the staff, there were some long-term customers that they are attempting to "relocate" or remove, that are not respectful of other residents, or compliant with new facility rules of conduct. On occasion, there may be a ruckus caused by those people being evicted. Due to that, there might be a noisy disruption to an otherwise peaceful stay. It's good that they're raising standards, but that is the down side of it. Summary: Great place to stay for the price and location. But if you need to conduct business during your stay, you're better off finding a nice (probably more expensive) place to stay, due to the inaccurate reviews crossed over from a nearby bad facility with a similar street name.
