Terrible
The place was disgusting and smelled realy bad. Front desk lady was very nice. But my room i booked was given away so we got a 3rd floor room and the elevator was broken, hair in the ice bucket, hair all over the bed, urine stains on the bed, floors were nasty.

Roaches all over counted 15 dead on the floor and 6 alive on the walls when we got up in the morning. The whole place reeks of pot and wet dog. The elevator has been broken for a month, according to the sign on the elevator. A big sign outside WiFi, there was no WiFi. The only good thing was the AC. Oh, one more thing, when we checked, they demanded a $20 cash-only deposit. That was not posted on Hotels.com

We were on the second floor and had to use the fire stairwell because the elevator was not working. The halls and room stunk. The staff was the only good thing about this place. We didnt sleep well because if you moved on the bed you felt like it would fall apart. We slipped and slided in the shower.

The service was horrible. The young lady who checked us in gave us the wrong type of rooms (smoking instead of non-smoking). The shower had no shower curtain… I found a bed bug on the bed!!!!! They also didn’t tell us a check in that the elevator was out!!!!!

I was poorly treated by staff. They sent me to a room that was occupied. The hotel smelled like pets and smoke. Barking dogs all through the halls. Water pressure in shower was unusable. No garbage can in bathroom. Television was too dark to see and couldn’t be adjusted. Very unsafe outside. Had to go to an atm off site to pay their $20 CASH ONLY deposit after room was already paid for. Horrible and scary experience and would not recommend. Too intimidated by the staff to complain.

The staff are very friendly and attentive. My room was clean and housekeeping came every day. The property felt safe. And for once the room had no weird smell like most hotels.

It was a convenient stop, a little off the path for amenities, but the property felt safe, staff was pleasant and polite. Nothing high end, but just fine for an overnight stop, a bed and shower, and always a bonus when they allow your pets without having to jump through hoops and pay all sorts of fees.
