Dirty, security lock on door kicked in, train multiple times per night, housekeeping poor, you had to ask for towels, breakfast consisted of old bagels, and some granola bars. Air conditioners missing knobs, bathroom door didn’t work. Didn’t feel safe, drug deals in parking lot. Will not be staying again

It wasnt very good. The room listed that I paid for online said it slept 3 with a pullout couch, it does not. Thankfully we brought a cot as there was only 1 bed. The AC wasnt working and it was really miserable. We had to open the door and window because it was so stuffy. I couldnt get more than one room key for 3 people. Not enough parking and the back parking lot was half full of random UHaul equipment??? Why? The shower backed up but it was hot, at least. Also they really need to put the refrigerated breakfast things such as the tub of cream cheese in ice. The same tub was left out and reused daily. No tongs for the bagels. It felt really unsanitary. I've stayed in some run down hotels without complaint but the final straw for me was the abysmal wifi connection. I needed to work on my college essays and couldnt get any pages to load to do my research.

Hands down the worst accommodation I have ever seen worldwide. Feces stained sheets, pee all over toilet, stained walls, hair everywhere, dirty sheets, disgusting carpet and furniture. Got a refund and left after 20 mins. Absolutely trainwreck of a motel. Oh! And a train literally runs past every 3 hours. Didn't stick around to witness it though.

One star because negative stars isn't an option.

I'm a notorious cheapskate and I've stayed in some *sketchtastic* places just to save a buck. I suppose the roulette wheel of cheap hotels had to land on "every pathogen known to man" eventually. The disappointment started with the wall of febreeze upon entry, and it was only downhill from there. A paper "sanitized for your protection" slip was on the toilet, which was obviously a lie because there was a skid mark on the seat that even my bespectacled eyes couldn't miss. Food on the table, "nether hairs" in the tub, beard hairs on the sink, and what one can only hope was rust where the coffee pot should have been. None of that was as bad as the obvious blood spatter on the bed skirt, however. The only saving grace was that I didn't have a black light on my person, as the what I can only imagine would be a super nova-esque light show would have haunted me for decades to come.

Hotel close to shopping and dining options. But unfortunately is close to highway and train tracks. The room had a strong smell of cleaning products and the floor was sticky. The hair dryer also didn’t work and the shower didn’t drain well. Pillows were nice and the bed was okay.

I ordered a Deluxe King room with a couch and when I arrived they told me that it wasn't available. So I settled on a other unit. No couch. The room smelled. The towels were hard, the TV was Tiny and the AC did not go below 72. Zero stars. Oh yeah, "breakfast" was a joke. Have an apple and a bowl of cereal if you'd like Lol

Dismal Domicile Hopeless Hotel

Horrid stay… the mattresses had to be 30 years old… sagging in sorrow with hard wire edges. The mounted headboard fell off the wall while trying to find an electrical outlet for one of the lamps. The curtains were off the rails, hanging on for dear life as you find in a haunted house. The AC unit sounded like it was crying out in agony and about to explode. There was a special door to a joining room without a secure lock but it’s fine because it had a note taped to it basically saying “Don’t worry about it.” The water pressure was very weak. No hangers, no wifi, the floor and chairs were extremely filthy. The bed spreads had cigarette burns in them and also some holes that were stitched back together poorly. There was an un-appointed strange man that would stand with his door wide open to his room on the bottom floor, just standing in the doorway, watching and directing parking… Great place if you’re into horror films IRL.

Not great

Not a lot of parking to begin with, our linens on the bed had hair from either the washing or previous people who stayed and they didn’t wash them. The deadbolt for the door didn’t work, the room itself was in desperate need of some work

Not so clean but it was comfortable

Its an older motel so don't be surprised if there are some things that aren't in pristine condition. Overall the cleanliness was fair but could have been better. The mini fridge didn't work and the curtains were missing hooks so they didn’t close completely. I will say that the bed the bed I slept in was very comfortable.

Yuck!

This place shouldn’t be allowed to rent rooms. Complete slum. Pretty sure there’s prostitution going on. Train passes by every hour. Blair horns through the night. You will not get an ounce of sleep. Places filthy. Had three different rooms for family members. Each room was disgusting. None of them were uniform. Bathrooms were not clean. You had to sleep with her clothes on and hoped you didn’t get some disease. Get a different place avoid this place for sure. Not worth it. Pay the extra couple hundred dollars a night to stay at the comfort inn, or the Hampton.
