There were roaches that crawled out of the drawer when we opened it looking for a bible. The wall plugs were not connected. When you plugged in your cell phone charger the eall plug would not hold it. We propped something to lean against it to keep it plugged in.

The staff was nice, the room was clean and quiet. I was only in town because my flight to Louisville was canceled due to the snowstorm and was happy to find a convenient and inexpensive place to stay near the airport.
