Bedding was definitely stained, not clean! No coffee in the room, none available in the lobby. Even the cheapest hotels at least have coffee. It was bad enough having flooring in the room with something stuck to it, damaged bathroom door, dirty bedding... and then no coffee. It WAS a place to lay your head down cheap, but you definitely got what you paid for!
