Electrical issues - SCORCH marks on outlets

The heater in the room was CLEARLY known to caught electrical issues. Instead of not using the room, warning me, marking it, they just... left it. So when i turned it on it began to smoke. Switched rooms - new room had no fridge. Switched rooms AGAIN and they put me in the original smokey room. It took HOURS just to get a room that i could safely be in. Several outlets i had to use/saw had clear scorch marks from previous electrical issues. I did not feel safe there and after the final room change i had to give up and deal with the cold when that room ALSO had electrical issues but i had to be at work early in the morning. To add insult to injury, i reached out to the manager - they never responded AND they kept my room deposit despite me leaving the room in good condition - i suspect because i complained so much about the unsafe conditions.

No curb appeal. I would think the place was Vacant. Weeds everywhere. No toilet lid, Cracked loose tile in the bathroom. Bathtub did not drain - that’s just disgusting. Hairdryer didn’t work. Tea packets were used on the dresser (that looked like it was a garage sale find) to level the dresser and also to keep a drawer from sliding open. Not the cleanest room. Lampshade was obviously ignored for years. There was what looked To be dry blood on the floor and drapes. The good thing was the location to downtown. Walking distance.

This was a good value for money option. The staff were friendly. The room was clean. It's is close to a main road and railway track so if you are sensitive to noise ask for a room on the other side from it. I heard it but didn't particularly bother me. Not much around the hotel but again I don't have need for anything so didn't bother me. Breakfast was fresh and had a decent selection. Would recommend if you want value for money.

The faucet leaked while running, which was a minor annoyance and the access panel to the AC/Heater was broken, making it difficult to access the controls. Aside from this the room was comfortable and the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was good, though they could probally use another waffle iron, as it was in use non stop.

The room was surface clean. There was what looked like a blood stain in the carpet if our room. The first morning around 11 some housing insecure/crack and alcohol secure folks yelling obscenities in our hallway. They then went out in front of the building n drink bickerd at like noise level 10. This went on for 30 ish minutes. I spent about 30 minutes in the car in the parking lot smoking by cancer sticks. There was always some questionable looking activity happening in and from a vehicle. The cleaning lady was aggressively off putting. I asked for an additional towel, she said I couldn’t have one unless I gave her a dirty one. I took a garbage bag off her cart and she scolded me😂. She then antagonized our exit for an hour every time I left the room for any reason. Everyone I encountered at the front desk was nice and helpful. The breakfast was adequate. The sausage looked like inedible. It was the only protein option.
