The hotel was clean and comfortable. My only complaint would be the lighting in the bathroom. They need vanity lights for us girls to put on their makeup and do their hair.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Our room smelled like a dog had used the bathroom in it repeatedly, and the carpet was sticky feeling. To top it off whoever cleaned it didn’t even bother to get out the last peoples soap from the bathtub. I really wish you could trust the photos posted online because this was completely different than expected.

It started with misleading ad on your site. The office was closed. We had to check in thru a window. There was old furniture and light fixtures out side end room. More than half the outside lights did not even have bulbs in them . Lots of the rooms had windows open ???. We had a dead bird in front of our unit the whole stay. There was supposed to have breakfast but there was not even a room to have breakfast in. The clerk said they could cook us something on their stove . There was a microwave on the patio. None in the rooms.Their ice machine was broken per the clerk. He did give up from "their kitchen" The furnature looked like it had not be dusted in years and was so old and dinged up. The refrig was either rusted up or dirty hard to tell. The bathroom looked fairly new. Will never stay there again.
