Check was not very friendly, got to room, door was broken, lights were not working, bugs and sheets were dirty. Had an unexpected additional cost to check in. Tub had a whole in it. Asked for a new room and told no until someone could check out the room.

The app says this location would have a fitness room, one of the amenities I wanted. They do not, I was told they had never had one. My room looked like it was under current construction, the bath didn't drain so a shower turned into a 2-4 inch bath. The curtain rod was barely hanging on so there was water all over the floor after my shower. There was no bathmat either. The desk clerk was very friendly. Breakfast the next morning was nearly gone by the time I popped in around 9:00 with nothing but cereal, 3 bread heels and some muffins.

The property was nothing like the photos on the Internet. Most troubling was the noise outside my door at night, and while the pillow and bed allowed for a good night's sleep, the look and feel of the hotel was ancient and badly in need of upgrades. For one night I can sleep almost anywhere, but I would think twice about having my family come with me.

First off the hotel ran my card on file and since I did not move my money into my account for them they canceled my reservation so I had to rebook my stay. Staff was rude. Once my family and I got to our room it was nasty and unclean. Baby bottle of rotten apple juice left in fridge, something red inside the safe, toilet wouldn’t flush properly, the tub and bathroom walls were filthy, food crumbs in the chair and desk chair, mirror had spots on it and sink had hair in it. I took a video of the room but only took one photo of the safe. To top it off there what looked to be prostitution going on there and also my husband was approached by someone asking him if he wanted crack! We locked our door and wedged the desk chair under the door knob slept for the night and then checked out the next morning. No way were we staying another night with our 5 kids!! Thankfully we were refunded for the second night. The pictures definitely were deceiving and they did not offer breakfast per the amenities say. Very disappointed.
Something red spilled inside the safe.

You get less than what you pay for! The pictures posted to the listing are not at all what is actually provided. Got a King Non-smoking, but walked in and reeked of cigarette smoke. The bed was clean with new, clean sheets- but only 3 pillows and the mattress is VERY thin making it hard to sleep on. The curtains were tattered, limiting our privacy. There were holes in the walls. There was mold in our bathroom. The bathroom door looked as if someone had tried to rip it off the hinges. The TV in the room was poorly mounted to the wall and hanging on for dear life. The wall outlets by the bed did not work. The drawers were not cleaned out from the previous tenant- found an old pair of socks and plastic hanger from a new pack of socks. I've got pictures which have been provided to management. We were only staying one night, with a super late check in time. With spending less then 8 hours in my room before checking out, I'm very disappointed for the price I paid. Not to mention, the "continental breakfast" that was advertised was unwrapped chocolate chip muffins, dry slices of bread, and water.

Bed bugs!!!!!!

The hotel was filthy on the outside. grossest experience I have ever encountered in all my years of hotel stays. These pictures make me nauseous. The bed was infested with these huge bed bugs. The entire room looked like the roof had caved in and was falling apart. Needless to say we never let anything but our feet touch the floor!!! Hotels customer Service, however was on point once we contacted and sent pictures they refunded my money and we were able to get another hotel room.

Not safe

I didn’t stay it’s not safe there. I checked in and go to the room to see ppl standing out there doing drugs and drinking like that’s the hang out spot. Police was called and they said nothing they could do unless they was fighting. I wasn’t the only one that checked right out there was three other ppl that checked out first.

Scary place, ghetto is what they call it. Didn’t sleep all night due to people outside. Many people outside, smoking and hanging out. Worse experience ever. I arrive late night in town and pick this place without reading the reviews. It is not safe there.
