Clerk at check in was rude, no smile, no kind of customer service. Toilet had no lid, machine in toilet, did not flush, toilet lid found on top of sink, shower was dirty, no toilet paper, smelled awful, drunk people in hallway yelling but staff did not know how to tell them to be quiet because it was 2am and kids/toddlers running in hallway, parents yelling around midnight at their children. Was not a good experience at all. Would never recommend this place

Worst experience ever

They are remodeling at the moment, but they are using that as a excuse to tell customers that their rooms are sold out even though you reserved one. After telling them that that was a huge inconvenience to me and my kids they magically found a room that "had no tv", i wasn't worried about that. The first room they magically found had no flooring, it was just sticky concrete, the furniture was piled in the middle of the floor and it was covered in dust and dirt. I went back to the main desk to at least ask for clean sheets since "they had no other rooms". It was then they came up with another room that suddenly became free, but had no tv. That room was at least an actual room, the only problem with it was the 3rd floor smelled like Marijuana. Also the elevator has items in the shaft that make it sound like its falling apart.

Let’s get the bad out of the way first. First entering the room the toilet was stopped up with poop so I had to wait for it to get cleaned up and stuff. I just laughed it off. The beds were pretty low, but not a major complaint. I could’ve done without the bed bugs though. I have bites all over my hands, arms and legs and those are just the ones I’ve found so far. The towel rack was broken. Shower floor wasn’t sturdy. Almost fell several times. Floor was dirty and items were left underneath the bed. Housekeeping didn’t come by my second day so I had to go get my own towels from front desk, but I guess that’s their thing. Outlets not being by the bed was extremely inconvenient. The few good things I can say is the front desk guy Willie was very nice and the lady that called the maintenance man to clean the toilet was extremely apologetic and swift. Oh and the roaches were on their best behavior I guess. I ONLY saw and had to kill two which I was very surprised and happy about. I more than likely will not be staying here again.
