I booked a room last minute through Expedia and showed up 40 minutes later and the place looked permanently clised and on the window they had a piece of paper that said "sorry we are closed for today." I called the number to end up having some woman in Mississippi answered. She said she doesn't work with that company and not sure why hwr number is on there

I did not even get to see a room, they overbooked me and at least two other people in line in front of me, The office was filthy, the woman said there were two rooms that she could not even rent out due to their poor condition. The neighborhood was seedy, the parking lot itself smelled awful. I am infact glad that this plan fell through, it looked like a stay there would have been miserable.

I arrived at the property around 4:30 PM and was very disappointed with my experience. The property looked poorly maintained, and the surrounding area felt unsafe and uncomfortable to me. There were also many flying insects around the property. I asked the front desk employee whether the area was safe, and his response was, “If you’re concerned about safety, then don’t stay here.” That response made me feel unwelcome and reinforced my concerns, so I decided not to stay.

This was absolutely the worst place I have been to in my life!!!!! It looks absolutely nothing like the pictures. I wanted to go home the minute i saw it but everything in town was booked. The place was sold out even with my reservation. It's over 90 degrees and they asked me if I cared if the room had air or a TV. I said air is a must I did not care about the TV. Finally get the room there were bullet holes and burns in the "curtain" .the linen looked like they kept a piece from each homeless person that stayed there. The room was so dark and dirty and you coul see holes in the walls from the mice. There was no shower curtain rod shower curtain toilet paper, THEY HAVE BEDBUGS

When I pulled up into the property, I thought it was a shelter. Old people sitting in their front doors, very few cars, froʻnt offìce had one ugly chair, the office looked dirty. The receptionist was n̈ìce though. Expedia shoudn't ĺet people a world away make loʻdging decision. A local agent would have kno wn better. And they want to be paid for the whole stay when I didn't set foot in the room. I would pay foʻr the first nigĥt. Nothing else
