Horrible. I showed up and room wasn't turned over and a mess. Had to use the restroom and it was so bad i didn't have to go after seeing it. They said they would clean and only showed up with new sheets and pillow case. The blankets were a mess. Room stall of smoke. Complained right away. Called expedia. Expedia called hotel they wouldn't return call or give refund. Worst place i ever tried to stay at and I've been to some bad ones.

Staff went in my room while i was gone and they left the room door opened and personal belongings came up missing. Complete invasion of privacy. And when i told the manager they did nothing about it.
