Check-in was efficient and easy. But was met with overwhelming smell of air fresheners. The elevator was like stepping into a marijuana smoke bomb, likely from the people who got off just before I got on, hallway and room had the same air freshener smell. Room a/c was set to 60 when I walked in…way too cold. Room itself was decent, but holes in the curtain, damage to the HVAC wall unit but didn’t affect performance, shower water pressure was low but tolerable, the tub spout, diverted and drain were rusty. The shower curtain didn’t keep water in the tub, so the floor was covered in water after my shower. Cracks in plaster in bathroom. Check-out was efficient, but I wasn’t able to get a receipt, was told I’d have to get that from Travelocity. For a budget hotel it wasn’t horrible…I’ve stayed in worse.

We stayed in the second building. When we entered there was a odor that smelled like an animal shelter. The room had a weird smell. The room needs to be updated. It was the worst room ever.
