The bathroom was very dirty. The whole hotel smelled like weed. They make you put a 50 dollar deposit down even though you paid for a room.I did not see any bed bugs, the tv had good channels and the bed was comfortable.

A place where when you have nothing allows for cheap and affordable place to stay even at your lowest, for that I'm most appreciated of this Hotel and it's staff. Though lacking in some areas if you have no where else to go this is a warm and safe if in doors to be for an relatively cheap and fair price
