The floors were nasty. Walking in my bare feet and they turned black. Amenities provided were OK. This room was a bed to sleep in, but definitely not a good experience or a hotel I will revisit.

No carpet in rooms. Bathtub old & stained in bottom. Toilet seat loose. Outside in fair condition. Breakfast a joke.

This place was horrible for the price. Paid $150 for a room that had dead bugs on the counter. Trash behind the bed. Holes in the blankets. Cats fighting in the parking lot. Gross
