Crumbs on the bed, floor, dresser. Patch jobs everywhere. Not even a toilet paper holder. If you need a cheap dirty place, this is it. Staff was kind. That’s the redeeming thing. Otherwise 10/10 would not recommend.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The staff was very helpful, considerate, and professional. The room was clean. Icemaker was brand new, but was giving staff problems. Have to go back in an hour or two. Had to wait for laundry to get washcloths and hand towels, but this was only a 45 minute inconvenience. I realize this is a low cost hotel, so I am not criticizing them for keeping material costs low, as well. Just noting the scheduling delay. Their people were doing their absolute best to fix both issues, which I greatly appreciate.
