I booked this hotel based on the photos and reviews and let me tell you this building is SKETCHY. I stayed here with just my friend and I and we were very uncomfortable the whole stay. The picture of the rooms are accurate but the whole vibe of the building is off putting. I also booked to pay once I got to the hotel and that my card would not get charged from hotels.com but the hotel went ahead and charged my card before I even got there and when I went to check in and an addition $22 for incidental hold but on their website it says it would hold no more than $10

After arriving at the property, and checking in, we canceled our reservation and asked for a refund (which was refused). Our rooms felt like we were in a basement, dank and musty smelling. There were large box fans in the hallway (don't know why). As we parked our vehicles on the rear side of the building a junker of a car backed into one of the adjacent stalls, and one guy went into the building while the other hung out smoking marijuana (with the motor on the vehicle still running). That's when we packed up and went back to the lobby (dark and unappealing) and checked out. We said we did not feel safe -- and found rooms at a much nicer hotel in town. The person at the front desk couldn't refund our money, so the manager called the next day. I told him that we did not feel safe, and therefore canceled our reservation. He simply told us that our reservations were non-refundable, and therefore he would not return our money.

We really like the hotel except there were constantly People in the Lobby just hanging out which made it very awkward. It is a railroad sponsored hotel and there were honestly a lot of sketch looking people always sitting around and there was never an employee around to help with anything
