A dump for workmen

This place is a dump, but the workmen use it. We specifically requested a first floor room. They lied to us and said one was not available. But when I got there and the air-conditioning was so loud I was going to walk out on them, they moved me to a first floor room. That is how I know they lied to me. If so many workmen use it, it serves a purpose. That is the best I can say about these liars.

The shower head was sticking out of a hole in the wall. The toilet wouldn’t flush correctly. The bathroom window let cold air in. Only a bed spread over top sheet. Other that that, the rug looked new and was clean.

Ok - a bed to sleep in

It was a bed to sleep in, nothing more. We got up early just to get out of there. Check in was just a check in. We got our key! Nothing more, she didn’t volunteer any helpful information . It was clean enough. Hot when we got there - very loud AC, but too hot without it. I doubt I’d stay there again.

Not sure clean. We saw alive and death roaches. The staff didn’t even speak when checking out. The walls are super thin so you can hear everything happening in another rooms. Making this not family friendly. Will not stay again and do not recommend. The o ly positive is that restaurants are super close.

Staying at this place really made me rethink the ranking system. When I pick this place out I saw that it had a pretty high ranking for the price. I've come to realize that you get exactly what you pay for. It was dirty, the sheets were dirty, there were three pillows for a queen bed which is too few in my opinion. The pillows were very small. They say that it's been renovated, but that's not true. They put some paint on it but the bathrooms look like they're at least 50 years old as does most of the other parts of the property.
