Never Again

This place hand stink bugs and spiders all over their rooms. Some alone some dead. I had to inspect three rooms before I could settle for one that was somewhat bug free. The rooms are gross, there are holes in the walls. The security latch on the doors where non-existent. The internet did not work at all so I was disconnected from the world. Horrible horrible horrible! Never again!

STAY AWAY.

This is a terrible, terrible hotel. Nothing in the hotel was clean, and the bathroom was a horror show. The area is sketchy/possibly unsafe. We turned around and left within 10 minutes of arriving, even though it was late at night and there were no other hotels available within a 2 hour drive.
