Dead insects all over the room, smelling like weed and fridge was stinky and dirty. Bathroom was rusted and mold, I did refuse staying in the room and they provided me with another room and had like moth ball smell. The room didn’t have a smoke detector nor fire extinguisher.
Nasty old sheets with cigarette burns and holes.
Bugs all over the room

My wife and I had a terrible experience here. We booked the room as a non smoking room only to get there and have the room smell heavily of cigarettes. Not only this, there were also several cigarette burns on the bedding as well as stains. The bathroom light did not work and the bottom of the bathtub was brown. The room was disgusting. After seeing the state of the room, we decided to not stay the night and ask for a refund. While talking to a receptionist, they claimed that the smell was from the upstairs neighbors and brushed it off when I brought up the burns in the sheets. They then refused to give a refund and would not budge. Don’t stay here if you want an enjoyable trip.

Disappointed to say the least.

Check in was good, room size was ok. The toilet was extremely noisy when you would flush. The sink drain was clogged up. They only give you two towels. I went in the morning to ask for another towel and was told no. I would never stay here again

Unclean property where the manager is more concerned about FaceTiming with his friend than checking us in. First room not made up, second room looked like it was already slept in. Bugs crawling around. Clothes under the stairs. Unclean lobby. Do not recommend.
Unclean lobby with I don't know what on the walls, and dead bug on the floor.
First room unmade.
Second room, looked slept in.

Owners make you pay a 25 deposit when clearly the websites states no additional fees. They say it’s a deposit and you will get back at checkout. Straight up lies.

Worst Hotel I Have EVER Seen

This hotel was absolutely disgusting. The bed sheets were stained, floors were not swept and the room was just in terrible over all condition. The area was very unsafe. The picture shows a white building....this building was brown and very run down. This room was so terrible we left. When i requested a refund i was denied by both the hotel and hotels.com. We will not be booking through hotels.com

At the time me and family are here. And we have been here a year and a half. It's been nice overall. Price could be better with the time. Family is happy, so I'm happy. Nice atmosphere. Friendly people overall.

Absolutely Disgusting – Stay Away! We booked two non-smoking rooms for five people and were immediately hit with the strong smell of cigarettes masked poorly by air freshener. Both rooms reeked. The sheets were filthy and stained with what appeared to be bodily fluids—completely unacceptable. There were cigarette burn holes in the sheets, and the pillows were yellow with drool stains. We weren’t expecting luxury, just cleanliness, and this place couldn’t even deliver that. When we approached the manager, she became defensive and raised her voice. Instead of addressing the issue, she blamed us for checking in half an hour early—as if that somehow justified the nasty sheets and lack of basic hygiene. When I asked for her boss, she insisted she was the highest authority. Totally unprofessional. Thankfully, we booked through Expedia, which refunded us for one night. But we were only in those rooms for five minutes—just long enough to realize we couldn't stay. Avoid this place at all costs. Hygiene, professionalism, and basic hospitality were completely absent.
