The bed had no mattress covers the shower was moldy and had no handicap bars, no slip stickers and the tub was slippery
No coffee pot in room and microwave did not work well
Nice staff and service. Both chairs were filthy, and bedspread not clean, left no place to sit.

Door key did not work, ran out of toilet paper because they do not leave an extra roll in the bathroom. Went downstairs to the office and they didn’t have one. Soap was a broken pkg of pieces of soap, no tissues . Bathtub was very slippery (dangerous) but over all room was clean
started out seeing a mouse just outside the check in area should of known then to go somewhere else. There were bugs in the room mostly dead ones so housecleaning needs to look closer than they did to clean the room. Live roach at one point major yuck! Towels were small and cheap for sure. Left to go out half the day came back to the fact they came in to turn down the beds with all our stuff in the room plus they opened the drapes half way as this is there signal to finish cleaing something else in the room. Was not happy that people walking by could see we had things out in our room not a good idea plus they took the towels and had not replaced them! Manager said we should of put the sign out on our doors Well there wasn't a sign to do that! So gave us one too late at that point! Would not stay here again --- just a Motel if you want one of those to stay at NO THANK YOU!
It was all good except the hotel manager said he would possibly give me an adjustment on the price when I told him I could be a regular customer. Then when I
A cockroach appeared in the shower. Washed it down the drain but it kept returning. Found a second (dead) roach on the floor next to the bed. When we used all the bath towels on the second day of our stay, received one more towel from the front desk but only after considerable back and forth with staff reluctant to provide it (we were expected to keep using the same towels).
The help there was very sweet,helpful and carikind

Target practice
Better than being homeless, however the roaches were just target practice. Other than that the slots were down majority of the time kinda a bummer. Not a horrible experience though lol
