This hotel is terrible. The rooms was dirty. The hotel has a no smoking policy, however we found cigarette butts in our room. The bedspread had cigarette burns. The bathroom had mold around the toilet. There were multiple places on the ceiling that was leaking throughout the hotel. I booked 3 rooms for myself and my family. We changed rooms 4 times in one night. We were traveling with little children that were exhausted or else we would've looked for somewhere else to go. Keep your money and stay away from this hotel.
Mold and active leak on ceiling in the hallway. Floor was wet

Property staff was very rude and didn’t care for anything else.

What appeared to be bloodstains on the carpet. The tub also was dirty. Mirror was broken. Wallpaper falling down. Furniture is old and filthy. Hallway and room wreaked of cigarette smoke. Stray cats crawling all over the parking lot. Television got only 5 channels. Very weird creepy vibe.

Não recomendo

Minha reserva não estava no sistema do hotel e a recepcionista não se interessou em resolver o problema. Tive que ligar para o hoteis.com e somente após isso, a recepcionista encontrou a reserva. As camas estavam limpas, mas o hotel está deteriorado. Não havia micro-ondas nem geladeira no quarto, conforme anunciado. Não recomendo.
