FILTHY!

My room was dirty, but because my daughter and I arrived late after her volleyball tournament, we were too tired to find other lodging. Plus, everything in the area was booked due to the tournament. But had I not been, but if I had any other options, I would have left. The first thing we noticed was hair in the bathtub. The caulking around the tub was in bad need of some bleach. The carpet was dirty too. I was wearing white socks and they were filthy after walking around the room. There was dried up food on the tray under the coffee maker. There was dust on the top edge of the backsplash in the bathroom. Which tells me it had not been wiped for a long time. The TV had very few channels, and no other options except an attached DVD player. The only good thing I can say was the staff was friendly, and the breakfast had a lot to choose from.
