Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
First of all, advertised that they had airport shuttle which turned out not to currently be operating. I mentioned it at check-in and there was no apology offered or any comment whatsoever. The price I paid for this room was ridiculous considering the lack of quality. This felt like a $50 room. On a positive note, I requested a ground floor room which I received.

Pictures online were nothing like the room we got. Our room looked like they assigned us to it in error. It looked like it was under renovation and being patched to paint. Floor was disgusting. Bathroom sink was pealing. Caked dirt in corners. Towels for one person although a 2 queen bed room. No tissue, no extra toilet paper. I do not recommend and would never return.

This is probably the most disgusting motel I’ve stayed at ever! Stained sheets, dirty walls, sink, floors, shower, and a barely functional tv. For $120 it was also a rip off.

One of the worst hotels I've stayed at in my life.

This was #2 of 3 "worst hotels I've stayed at in my life." The pictures are completely misleading. The rooms and building were borderline dilapidated and should be torn down/condemned. There was arguing an yelling at all hours of the night (3:30 am - 4:30 am) with horns/alarms going off and police sirens nearby all night. The floor was "wavy" and the room was disgusting. The room was so gross that when I laid down to sleep I tried to minimize movement to avoid contact as best I could with my surroundings. I looked for something I could use as a weapon while I slept. I'm not kidding. When I was picked up by my Uber driver in the morning I told him how awful it was. He asked me if I had heard the prostitutes while I was sleeping. This was so bad that I will complain to Hotels.com. This should not be on their website.
