The room smell like cigarettes the toilet was loose. You couldn’t even sit on it. There was no remote control it. The mirrors weren’t even clean right the curtains were hanging. Didn’t stay more than an hour and I left. I went to a better location and comfortable I do not recommend this location unless you are a drug user drug seller or hooker because that’s what the hotels about.

The front desk people are super nice, but the room was gross and there are alot of shady characters on the property. When i was walking to my room there was a guy smoking fentynol on tin foil when i turned the corner, the only thing good about this hotel is the location, Ive stayed here alot in the past because of close proximity to my family members but im not doing it again, this is what you would expect if the room was like $50 but for more then double, im good.

Filthy, disgusting room, I needed a room just to sleep couple hours before I head to work as I live couple hours away and didn’t want to drive at midnight, the room was absolutely filthy, and at 2:50am a homeless person was knocking on my door, and I couldn’t sleep anyway since the place was just loud and full of homeless people.

Fit for Donald Trump

Check in sucked. Claimed they did not have my reservations even after I showed them the printed out confirmation. Since they have no inside check in, done through a window, I had to wait outside in drizzling rain for the slowest check in imaginable. Slow-Slow-Slow!!! I put my luggage on a desk in the room. Desk fell apart, because it was never properly secured. Brought the front desk clerk back to my room to show him. We had to jerry rig a fix. He did not pass on the information to the next clerk. So I had to take that clerk back to room and show him. I will say the clerks were pleasant enough, but seemed young and inexperienced. Also forget the wifi. Worked on my phone, but to slow to stream anything on iPad.

It was extremely dirty, moldy and I felt gross even walking in the room. I’m a avid traveler and have been to many countries and this by far is one of the worst places I’ve been to.
