There were sugar ants in the bathroom. There was, the shower was very difficult to turn on. It took me five, tries to figure it out. Water pressure was terrible. Customer service was great. The room was nice. And the noise level was low.

Let's start by my going into my room and noticing it was frigid in the room, it's the end of January and the bathroom window was wide open...WHY? I immediately closed it and turned the heat on. I then got into bed. Woke at about 11:00 pm freezing, the heater was turned on full blast, but didn't work. Calls to the front desk must have been routed to a call center. I kept getting someone who was trying to take a reservation. I woke in the morning after getting a sleeping bag out of my vehicle. I turned on some lights, saw someone's toenail clippings on the floor by the bed. I looked at the heater on the wall below the window and I should be glad it didn't turn on, it was filled with hair and nasty debris. The drawer by the sink was filled with hair and dirt. There was dirt in the corners of the room. This was probably the absolute worst room I have ever stayed in. I will NEVER stay here again. EVER. I have pictures......

The condition of the room was very unclean. Crumbs, hair, and other objects on the floor. The fridge was broken, the shower nozzle did not turn on, and there was a very foul fish odor in the room.

Book through oyo only, no third party!!!!!!

We showed up after a 6 hour drive only to a kiosk you have to use after 2pm!!!! Very rude and unhelpful woman working the kiosk. I was in tears, it was my daughters wedding weekend. I had reservations for 3 rooms for 2 nights through Hotels.com ( never booking on here ever again) A lot of family was staying there. The next morning, I have to say the women working on site helped and got me the rooms we needed. A big thanks to her!!! But also, my credit card was charged for NO SHOW!!! She took the charge off and comped my one room, that im grateful for. It was an experience!!! Thankfully it was resolved, but watch your credit card using any third party site. Good luck with anyone staying there. Bathroom in 211 was gross ! Plus the doorknob was shaking like it was fallin off Nasty place in same parking lot as a bar. People yelling in the parking lot all night I wished i would've booked best Western.
