Room had not been cleaned, trash can was still half full and there was even trash in the sink, at least the bed appeared to have been made. There was a musty, old smoke smell throughout, likely from the incredibly dirty carpeting. It was larger than most in this price range so the space was nice and for being so close to the highway it was quieter than I expected and the bed was fairly comfy so there were good points. Overall for the price it was about what you would expect, the smell was really the worst of it and it wasn't too terrible.

Not a kid friendly place at all, the people who seem to stay there permanently have junkies coming through the parking lot at all hours of the night, loud music outside blaring from said drug dealer.

Great stay. Only issue is the smoke smell on the sheets. I could smell it clearly in the bedding. Made me wonder if sheets and bedding were changed before our areival. Could also be the age of the mattress.

Really gross here, room reeked of cigarettes (we didn’t pick a smoking room) and was very dirty. Outside area in general was not presentable/ safe- enough to where we couldn’t go through with staying the night.

Extremely dirty hotel room. The bed did not have clean sheets. Wall was full of holes. Room lights were not working. The door separating my room to the other room was broken. Very sketchy people in the surrounding rooms and throughout the parking lot. There were stray dogs running around in the parking lot as well. Would avoid.
