I was a little dissapointed in the condition of the room. It was clean, but old looking. The wash cloths were stained and there wasn't a hair dryer nor an iron in the room. The bed was very comfortable. Probably the best sleep I've ever had in a hotel.

The staff was nice however the room was horrible. The floors and walls were filthy. The towels were stained. The toilet was running after every flush. The tv was tiny and didn’t work at first. When I went to call room service, the phone was broken and didn’t work. The staff quickly fixed the tv so at least that was good. Oh and no blow dryer. Totally unsatisfactory especially for the price I paid to stay there. NEVER AGAIN!

I booked this hotel weeks before traveling across country to attend the Alabama vs. LSU college football game. I went through multiple hotel website pictures and reviews before booking. Upon arrival I was greeted by a very friendly front desk agent who assisted me with my check in. When I opened the door to the room it was absolutely filthy from top to bottom. The sheets (comforter, down sheet and pillowcases) had cigarette burn holes in them, the lampshades had brown swill inside, the floor was covered in a film of a sticky substance, the toilet had a ring around the bottom that smelled of bile and human feces, the bathroom vanity had cracks all throughout which harbored hair follicles and multiple different debris substances and the entire room reeked of cigarettes and marijuana. My brother and I didn’t even put our belongings on any of the surfaces because we were worried about bed bugs or any other spreadable disease. We immediately left and I returned my hotel keys to the front desk agent and explained to her that I would absolutely not be staying in that room or hotel establishment. I would like a 100% refund for not only the multiple inconveniences my family and I had to endure but also for the lack of transparency within the online booking.Images that were on your actual website.

Great service. Not great room.

Room was non smoking but smelt like smoke and all the bed linens had cigarette holes in them and discoloration. Towels were discolored. Was an accessible room and I almost slipped on the flooring multiple times just wearing socks. Bathroom had hair and dead beds all over the floor, counter, and shower floor. Appliances in the room were discolored and dirty and looked like they would start an electrical fire. Zero plugs to charge a phone except in the bathroom were free for use. Could not get comfortable and was afraid to sleep in the covers. Parking lot stayed well lit however many cars came in and out throughout the night where guests and non guests just lingered in the lot chatting. Felt very unsafe. Staff however were very friendly both in the evening and in the morning and I wish the room reflected the same.

We checked in and right back out. The room was filthy, it stunk, nasty pillows and pillow cases. Cigarette burns all on the dresser. Black around the bath tub. Other guests outside smoking weed. This is definitely NOT suitable for travelers with children. I do not know how safe the area is, but the parking lot itself was full of people sitting outside with chairs from their rooms. Abandoned shopping carts. This is a case of emergency only place to stay!
