Cheap and comfortable

For what I wanted, which was to stay cheap and relatively clean and comfortable this was fine. You could tell they tried to make it a decent room. The actual bed linens were very clean and it took 2 days before I saw my first bug. But be aware, no matter where you go, bugs do get in. I never hold a bug or two against a place. I had good hot water and a foam topped mattress and four pillows so slept well. I would say this met the goal of a cheap hotel which beat camping at the festival I was attending.

Got to hotel at 10:30 pm lobby was closed so I rang the doorbell at the night window 5 times over a period of 20 minutes. I also called the management phone number on the door and had to leave a message. No one ever came. I had to go to another hotel.

As a realtor/builder/flipper it was ashame to see these rooms rehabbed with ZERO attn to detail. The crew doing the work was onsite remodeling other rooms. 20 somethings with no experience and a crew leader that obviously doesnt give a flying frick.
