Save your money

Absolutely the worst hotel I’ve ever checked in to. I don’t know what some of the people were thinking when they wrote good reviews. It was musty, mold on the refrigerator, the elevator was scary to ride, the bathroom was the smallest ever. The toilet was literally touching the shower and when you flushed it it made a loud squeaking sound. The shower looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in yrs. We went out to eat, came back and checked out and immediately went to a better hotel down the road.

Property needs some upkeep. Fan was falling in bathroom, security lock was missing part of hit to catch, tiolet had to shake handle so wouldn’t run, air conditioner was noisy and ran ineffectively we actually open window with screens to help cool room. The upside was it was one of cheapest in town as it was graduation weekend. Tried to save some $$ but probably wouldn’t stay another time.
