The room had some serious use with scuffs and gouges on the walls This location is very noisy, and the parking lot seems to have a lot of traffic in and out all night long Although the TV and air-conditioning were working well In person, it is not as nice as it appears online

At check in the clerk tried to charge us for a room we had already paid for. In his defense, I only gave my name and ID, not that we had already purchased the night stay. As soon as we walked in the room our shoes stuck to the floor. That ruined the stay. The furniture was old...a couch in the room must've been from the 70s. There were spots and black hair on the hand towel. The bathtub was nicely and recently retiled. Like I said we couldn't get past the sticky floors. Old is not necessarily bad, dirty is. The front and bathroom doors had kick impressions on them. I would not stay there again

The whole room was infested with roaches, even in the bed where I was sleeping I woke up to roaches all over me, and had to GO! everything was filthy, and the bathroom was disgusting. Showers in jail looked better than this. The power and the water both were shut off At multiple random times. The front office had to supply me with a bottle of Raid, and sorry to say but I will never stay here again in life. This experience was traumatic, I have never been face to face with so many roaches

More sad than expected

Was very sad about the current condition of the former Mills. My first room had no working outlets, heater, nor frigerator and one light semi working. The second room was an improvement but no heater. I love quirky places, and this one was good. A barber chair and magazine rack. The lights worked and frig. Both rooms had comfortable beds and were not noisy.

Disgusting

Hotel had no record of our reservation and demanded cash. The room was filthy. There was one double bed instead of the two queen beds reserved. We left at 7am and found other accommodations. Hotels.com did charge us for the entire three nights but is supposedly refunding. Hotels.com really should remove this hotel from their inventory!
