When we showed up the hotel did not look like it did in the pictures. The bathroom was dirty. People are hanging out in the parking lot and we did not feel safe. We did not sleep there. On our way home now three hours away for safety reasons.

The check in person was not friendly or welcoming and charged a $100 deposit not mentioned in the booking info but that’s often standard. The room was literally 90° when we got there and the AC took several hours to cool the room down enough to sleep. Not a good experience.

I had to stand outside waiting to be checked in, we arrived at 11:30pm and I stayed outside ringing the doorbell for almost 10 min. I was tired and ready to cancel my reservation. Rooms were not clean, sheets and towels had markings. Bed had a piece of dirty“Kleenex” and it was very unpleasant.
