Not terrible, but I never received any communication about how I mixed the date up and put it for the wrong night I called a dozen times and left messages I didn’t even go lastnight like I wanted to but there was a death in my family and it turned things upside down and they didn’t offer a credit or even if they kept half but they wouldn’t do anything. I understand it says no refunds but this falls in a gray area I don’t think would’ve hurt anyone to offer me

We were not familiar with the Philadelphia area but decided to try a hotel near the airport because we assumed it would be safer and nicer. That's not what we found. We call this motel the murder motel. The door to our room was dented and looked like the locking mechanism had been replaced several times because someone kicked it in. The room reeked of smoke and the ceiling was stained and moist and looked like it was going to fall in. I didn't get a chance to take pictures because we literally ran away.

After a very long day and arriving past midnight dead tired, I entered a filthy dirty room. The fake flooring had not been swept or mopped in what looked like a year. There was dirt, debris, fuzz, and filth on the floor. The bath mat had 10 shades of dirt on it, and I didn't dare take a shower in the awful tub. I was very reluctant to sleep in the bed, but had no choice. When I fluffed the pillow, a black beetle fell out and crawled across the sheet. Disgusting. The outside of the hotel was dirty with a million shards of glass broken right in front of my room, and it didn't seem to matter to the hotel at all, as they just left it there. In addition, there were empty beer cans, trash, and debris in the parking lot. Do NOT stay here, unless you don't care about sleeping in a disgusting and filthy dirty room. An absolute crap hole. Don't let photos fool you, it is just gross, dirty, and a filthy hotel.

This place didn't seem safe to me. It's next to a Motel 6 and from the moment you get out of the car you see a strange atmosphere with strange people. The room smells totally awful. I give it 1 star.
