Felt sketchy

One night stop over. All rooms on ground floor. Each room had two access doors, one from interior hallway and one to the parking area. No cable tv available, but, chrome cast was available to cast an app from the phone. A lot of activity in the parking area outside my room until midnight with guests talking loudly and carrying on. Didn’t feel real safe with the two room doors.

The staff was very friendly. However the rooms were very dated and didn’t seem clean. We had open/used travel shampoo in our shower. The lighting in the bathroom was so dim it was hard to see. The entire hotel was dark. The hotel did not have a pleasant odor either.
