Do not recommend.

Friendly staff at check-in. Door to our hallway did not lock, so anyone from the outside could come in. Bed was very uncomfortable; the pillows had very little stuffing (old and lumpy) and smelled like urine. There was no place to hang clothes. The single sink did not offer any place to get ready in the morning, and the small bathroom had the only mirror. The TV did not work. It said there was no signal. Carpet felt dirty on our feet. Curtain was falling off the rod. Had to run the water for a long time to get warm water. Light above the sink in the bathroom did not work. The room was one of the cheaper ones we could find in the area.

The mattress had a plastic wrap around it that crinkled like a potato chip bag every time you move. We got two small travel-sized pillows total (one each). Reception could not be reached by phone. External doors into the areas where rooms are aren’t secured, and someone rattled our door early in the morning.

Paid Guest Who Was Verbally Denied Service

I am currently in Room 23 as of Friday, July 11th at 7:00 AM. What I am about to explain happened shortly after 6:45 AM Central Time. I attempted calling the front desk this morning, but the line was either picking up or working when dialing 0. The room doesn't have an iron and ironing board. Therefore, I walked downstairs to see if they had one behind the desk. The lady asked what my room number was. I couldn't remember the exact number, but I told her I think it is B21. The lady explained that I am not in the system, and asked me to confirm my room again. I told her how to get to my room, which is take the B door and it is the first room on the right upstairs. She proceeded to tell me that I AM NOT IN THE SYSTEM and asked me to go and check my room number. I walked back and confirmed my room is B23. I asked "If I am not in the system, how will I get my deposit back". She then became angry (called me rude) and denied to give me the iron and slammed the door to the office. Yes, she verbally said she would not give me the iron. Note, when looking at the phone in my room, it says room 21. However, the room number says B 23. I booked this room through hotels.com. I will be leaving the same review there as well. This is my 2nd time every staying at a 2 star hotel. It will be my last time. I didn't know it was 2 star until after I booked my reservation.

It was a very efficient experience. Perfect for a place to sleep for the night as long as you don't care that the window is very close to the parking lot. Clean and a good value.

Was charged an extra $60 when i got to the hotel for no better explained reason than deposit..???? I asked for an explanation genuinely confused as I've already spent money on the hotel online and was met with attitude and rudeness…. The receptionist’s demeanor made me feel so questionable about the safety of my personal info i for the first time actually thought about the dangers of handing someone my ID not once til now had i considered that
