Johnna

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Greeted by the smell of pot, body odor, and cigarettes. Staff struggled to find a clean room to put me in and lacked social skills. Advertised amenities not functional, such as TV, hot tub, or morning coffee. Loud guests in the hall until 11 pm and thin walls.
Linens appeared clean but the bed was not properly made. The bathroom was gross.
Toilet and shower not clean. Noisy, smelly AC unit. I didn't want to touch anything!

When we booked the room it included a pool and breakfast. They no longer provide this. The toilet was dirty and the parking lot had garbage all over it. It was not a good stay. They also have removed the coffee pots and microwaves from all the rooms. We needed these for medical reasons. Not happy

Staff was friendly and helpful, and our room was clean but smelled like someone had been smoking in it. No mattress cover on the bed, mattress was old and dirty looking. Carpet in the hallway was stained and there were holes in the walls. the smoke detector in our room was hanging by the wires. Shower door was hard to open and once open, hard to close. We were woken up by yelling outside, police were present, and we found a syringe in the parking lot.Pictures were nothing like what we saw when we got here.

Very cheap (don’t pay more than $60 for a night) so expectations are low. They have drained their pool and killed their breakfast. You can expect torn carpet, crumbling walls and tight parking. I did not even get a trash can in my room. My non smoking room smelled of cigarette smoke. They do have clean bedding and towels.
