I liked the staff when checking in, he was very nice and polite. I don't like that there was no breakfast not even a pastry. The whole building outside need renovation or at least to be cleaned, new carpets, and update TV and cable.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
To begin with, the main door did not close properly, there was hair everywhere, in the bathroom, on the sink, on the floors and on the bed, it seemed that it had never been vacuumed and the worst of all was when I moved the sheets there were dead bedbugs and black dots on the sheets that indicated that there could be more, we could not sleep there, I had to leave with my family immediately from that place.

The first room the bolt wouldn’t work on the door. The second room smelled awful. The third room was adequate until morning when there was a small roach on the bathtub. I left without showering. Breakfast was simply sweet rolls that are prepackaged and not very appetizing. I’m returning to Best Western where there are no roaches and great breakfasts.

Very unsafe would not stay there ever again. Ladies in the front office were excellent. The room was nice and clean except for nasty dirty paint on the wall and bathroom door cracked and split. Toilet and tub extremely old. Way overpriced
