Expedia, shame on you for not showing the actual picture of the property on your listing. Very deceptive. This is an old motel that has not had updates in a long time. The room smelled, the furniture is beat up, there were cigarette burns in the bedspread, and what I thought were ants were actually baby cockroaches. It was fairly clean and the water pressure was good. The bed was comfortable, but there was just a top sheet and a thin coverlet(with lots of holes), but no blanket or comforter. There were some folks just hanging around outside and music was playing late into the night. I think people may live at this place. It was fairly convenient to Duke. The 3 staff members I interacted with were extremely friendly. Wyndam needs to do a full gut job on this property.

I was disappointed because this is a Wyndham property. The property needs a full renovation. There was a hole in the bathtub. Ants and roaches in the bathroom. A used water bottle was in the frig when we arrived. The wayer was rusty. The towels were very nice and fluffy. The picture online did not match the actual property.

Smoking smell

I couldn’t sleep because the smoking smell in the room. The air conditioner kept blowing out air with smell. The floor is not clean and not flat. The door is broken on the side so the cold air blows in. Even though I was asking a non smoking room, the horrible room is what they gave me. The picture showed on internet was fake.
