The bathroom toilet did not flush properly. There were no plastic cups for water. The king size bed was not set properly on foundation. Ok for one night.

The man who checked me in was very polite and informative. Customer service wasn't the issue. Unfortunately, the room smelled strong of dollar store room spray, no screen on the window that was left open prior to check in, there was dirt on the carpet, random hair in the bed and on the towels, grime in the sink/shower and to top it off absolutely no toilet paper in the room. The walls are thin and I heard the people above me at all hours of the night coming and going. Lead me to believe there was some illegal activity going on especially when there was a cop car hanging out in the parking lot when I arrived at 9:30pm. This was the only room I could find under $150 but I would have opted for a different selection had I known. Wouldn't recommend.

The property needs a lot of work. Ceiling in bathroom was falling down. Bed sheets were old and bathroom towels were lacking.

Do not waste your hard earned money on this Inn
I am surprised Hotels.com rents this place out. The most dirty place I have ever seen. We didnt even bring our luggage in the place it was so bad. No lock on door, room was NOT clean, sheets were not clean, No pillow cases, Wet mildew towels, tv didn't work, clearly they do not care. No refund, saw a drug deal out a lower room window, while owner was in same area. Honestly, I do not know how this place is even open. Crusty dirty towels, under bed, behind & night stand . Chests of drawers had dead gnats, and winged insects in them. Bugs, both Bed, and roaches. The bed spread was clearly not washed in ages. Smelled like a wet basement with a mix of cigars and body odor. I could go on and on, but here are the pictures to support every thing stated.
