Door lock didn’t work properly. We were shown in order to open the room door the last step was to kick the bottom of the door! Seriously! Room wasn’t made up properly. Two clean wash cloths was it. Bed not made, trash cans not emptied, no water cups…

You get what you pay for

Smelled like smoke and my husband got a moldy muffin. They sure weren't thinking when they built a hotel practically on the railroad track. Who can sleep with a train honking in their ear?? I guess the only thing they have going is the "cheap" rate. (Compared to other places. We still paid too much.)

Our first room wasn’t cleaned at all when we arrived, when we got a new room, our keys didn’t work. Not a single member of staff during our stay spoke English. When we got to our second room, our AC unit was disgusting, our tv didn’t work, sheets were stained, and the box spring was covered in brown stains. The entire hotel had an odor that smelled like feces, and the lobby smelled like cigarettes.

Kinda sketchy

The first room I was given has several problems, burned out lights, chirping smoke alarm, broken toilet, etc. that I reported to the front desk staff. They gave me a different room which was better, but not great. Cleanliness and condition was an issue in both rooms. I will note the bathroom in the second room was clean. There was a guy crashed on the lobby sofa talking on the phone about a drug deal. Kinda sketchy.
