the room was disgusting. there was chicken on the floor? hair on the bed and towels. A black stain on the hand towels. The fridge was dirty. There was also a creep that kept parking next to me and shouting at me to “ask a question” but then stating i don’t wanna shout the question, so i would get closer. never have felt this unsafe. I moved to the back of the hotel. and minutes later he drives around sees my car and parks across.

Gross and gross
Booked this room for one night, did not have super high expectations. Good thing because even the smallest one was too much.
Check in was fine, however there are no elevators to get to the second floor. Only stairs. Also was not given the WiFi password to be able to use the complimentary WiFi as listed in amenities.
Parking spaces are small, and short.
Room:
Upon entering room, it was stuffy and warm because the ac unit was OFF. Promptly shut the curtains to the window and turned on filthy ac unit.
Carpet/rug wasn’t the cleanest, and the vinly flooring had some kind of gross slick film on it. DID NOT walk barefoot.
Hair on bathroom floor, bath mat was dirty and stained, and the tub had dirt and grime in it.
The bed had fake eyelashes in it from a previous guest staying.
The pillows were the most flat and uncomfortable pillows.
Took the room FOREVER to cool down.
All in all, never book here. Spend the extra money and stay down the road at the La Quinta.
But you do get a complimentary cup of coffee the next morning.
The room was good but it was needed to upgrade to a premium room in order to have microwave and a fridge. The room floor wasn't clean. When asked the room service for coffee they sent me to the front desk.

Just OK
Overall was ok. Wasn’t the best area, and someone had a fight outside my door. Room was clean. No breakfast.
When we arrived, we heard about other guests having a roach infestation at their room, but we decided to hi ahead and give it a try, as we were doing a late check-in after midnight. When we opened the door, the smell of cigarettes was potent and hard to ignore. We did not complaint, as other guests complaining about roaches were deemed as "problematic". Room was dirty, sheets had stains, bathtub full of human hairs. Disgusting. Do not stay here. Although I only paid $109 with tax per night, I'm sure a $100 extra a night are worth it in another hotel nearby.

Disgusting hotel roaches crawling all around in both rooms we were moved to. Expedia won’t even help get a partial refund. Hair all over the beds as they weren’t clean bath tub has mold!! Stay away!!
The property was dirty with holes in the glass windows! Room wrecked of pot smell and the clientele appeared to be pretty rough. We didn't feel safe and just left to find some other accommodations
My family and I chose this hotel because it's across the street from the fairgrounds where the horror con was being hosted. The receptionist that we dealt with were friendly and so where the other guests whenever we came into contact with them. We all loved that it was a non-smoking hotel. While staying at this hotel, we came to discover that there was a Wawa within walking distance.
