I'd try to find a better hotel.

Blood stain on sheet. Mattress on bottom side was dark orange colored on the edges. Room OK, but a lot of drywall repairs that were rough.

Worst hotel experience of my entire life. First, I waited over an hour for deals person to check me in. Then I went to my room and it was filthy. There was still garbage from the occupants of the room of the night before. They did switch the room

Staff at check in seemed bothered I had shown up. They tried to put me in a different room than the type I had booked. The bed was saggy, the door sounded like it was going to open on its own and didnt shut without being slammed. The carpet was filthy, there were random things under the bed. The whole place smelled like stale cigarettes despite the non-smoking signs everywhere. The area seemed sketchy. Glad I survived without being shanked.

The advertised complementary breakfast was actually show the room key and get 15% off a meal at Denny's. When I arrived the person checking me in was on a phone call and left his headphones on. When I went to checkout they were unable to find any paperwork that I actually checked in with out an extensive search

The first room we were given was dirty. On the second, the door would not unlock, even for the staff person. Finally, the third room was just adequate.

So-So Hotel in industrial area.

It was a so-so hotel. No coffee in the room. The road outside was a busy one so no way of taking a walk to unwind and relax. Would be good for the front desk clerk to provide information on things to do in the area.

They have bugs all over the place and even in the rooms. I had to kill some to go to sleep and you can see the guest before me had to kill some too because the smash marks were still on the walls with bug juice. Not happy about my stay at all

Absolute Katastrophe

Verdreckte, teilweise mit getrocknetem Blut verschmierte Betten. Alte Handtücher und Socken unter dem Bett. Im Bad kam der Putz von der Decke. Modriger Geruch und zu allem Überfluss Bettwanzen in den Bettlaken. Nach 2 Stunden sind wir wieder gegangen. Absolut widerlich und auf keinen Fall gesund. Beschwerde läuft... Fotos mute ich mal niemandem zu.
