The room had a heavy smell of fabrize in order to cover the real smell. The beds are very old and uncomfortable and the sheets had stains on them. The water for the shower was lukewarm. You can see light around the door to the outside.

Property fairly well maintained, did not care for the area that it was in. Only contact we had was with one staff member, three times and she was rude to us each time. Continental breakfast consisted of two prepackaged danishes, and some packets of instant oatmeal. Coffee machine in room did not work.

Cons: Room was less than ideal for the price. It was dirty and in need of some maintenance. Broken glass under the bed, blood or other substance on the lamp shades, hand prints on the window, Luke warm water for showers, mold and mildew in the bath rooms. Pro: close to Auburn for game day.

Dirty- do not recommend

Not a good place to stay at all- it's dirty, musty, other people staying there smoking pot so the whole complex smelled, towels are thin and cheap, bathroom is disgusting and filthy, beds are incredibly squeaky at every movement as if the frame needs to be oiled. Would not at all recommend.
