Did not like it. Property outside was filthy dirty with trash all over, room bed was disgusting , very dirty bedding, one light (only) in room worked, lobby dirty; toilet seat wore out and unsafe, shower tub filthy . it looks like place used for drugs and prostitution. cockroaches . It was a nightmare. The only good thing was that we could park our car in their parking lot for free, for the duration of a cruise we took.

The room smelled very musty. The tiles were broke in the vanity area and came up when we stepped on them. We were only left with one towel. No washcloths no hand towels… Office not open when we went to check out this morning. Will not stay here again.

This property should not be listed on Expedia! We paid for the room before arriving to the city. When we pulled in, there was vagrants everywhere in the parking lot people loitering and she’s hanging around rooms open barbecue pits right outside like people were living there not renting very unsafe. I would not recommend this place to anybody avoid it. we drove to the parking lot and kept going. We just took the loss of the cost of the room for the night.

What a dump this place is more like a crack user hotel than anything else. How Expedia has this hotel on their website is beyond me. The pictures on the website must be from another hotel because not one picture on the website is really the bedroom. The room was filthy, the bed was full of hairs and the sheets had cigarette burns. The floor was full of cigarette butts and trash. We went to the office to tell them of the condition of the room the clerk asked me if I wanted a broom to sweep the floor. There was no toilet paper in the bathroom. We slept on the foot of the bed fully clothed even with our shoes on. The curtains could not be closed to keep people walking around from looking into the room. Please do not rent at this hotel you will regret it. If there would be a place to post pictures on this review I would post the pictures we took to show the true condition of this hotel.

The property was old, and the parking lot was dirty, and seemed to be used as a junk storage, which made me feel unsafe. The room was clean though, and the staff were nice. In the end, nobody bothered me, and I was completely safe.

Don’t do it! Move on and fast!!

Staff was friendly but the room was not properly cleaned and stocked with toiletries, thank god that I had stuff in my car. The AC unit was very loud. The TV and microwave didn’t work and it didn’t even have a remote in the room for it either. This was the last room available and we were too tired to move to the next town to seek another room

Think twice

Mold on shower curtain. Towel rod missing. Almost dead cockroach in bathroom. No bedspread. Floors not swept. No towels in room. No place to hang clothes. Outside looked like it was never cleaned. So bad we left a day early. Good—did refund portion of payment. Service guy did come check when bath light went out.
