The eggs and sausage were nasty. The taste and texture did not seem like it was real food. The room looked like it had not been updated since 1999. The trim on walls and around doors needed cleaned and painted. The shower had weak water pressure and the design of the shower and curtain allowed water to go all over the floor.

The rooms were clean but the walls were very thin and we could hear everything in surrounding rooms. Pillows were short and thick sort of like a kids squish mellow pillow. Breakfast was provided and adequate.

The room was clean and the people were polite. Water was soaking the area under the heater/air conditioner, we told the receptionist on check out. We weren’t sure if the water was coming in because of the rain or if it was some other reason. But most importantly the hotel was close to the University.

The structure of the hotel is apparently made of wood and not concrete. That means you can hear people above you creaking on the floor. The hotel is situated next to a highway entrance or at least it sounds like that. Luckily I am a heavy sleeper. The hallways were painted by a blind man that left white paint all over the carpets. My room stunk of air freshener to disguise the bad smell from a recent occupying smoker and a nasty ceiling looking like it had a toilet leak from above. The room was clean but looked beaten up. Breakfast was akin to prison fair. It felt like folks were living there, not a very safe feeling. All in all the place feels like a low rent poor halfway house. Desk man was nice, staff looked demoralized. My car did not get broken into over night so that was a plus.
