Stayed here because the pictures made it look real inviting especially for the price. I felt like it was a bait and switch! Just pay extra to stay somewhere else. My room smelled like mildew. Will not be returning.

Not sure where 8-point-something rating came from. Place was a dump. Air conditioner was so loud in room it woke us up everytime it kicked on and off. I mean almost laughably loud. Bathroom was dirty. Cigarette burns in blankets. Fridge and microwave looked like they were rescued from a flood, rusty and old. We felt totally bamboozled by ratings for this place. Person qt front desk was super friendly only plus. Oh and continental breakfast was crap- just cereal and toast and yogurt and coffee machine was broken. AVOID!!!!

Stay somewhere else

At check in & out, personnel were friendly. For a one night stay it was very unappealing. The floor was filthy. My socks were a dark grey fron just a few minutes in the room. The sink area had visible hair from a previous traveler. The following morning I went to shower at 0630, and there was NO hot water. I had left the faucet run for 10 min and still was forced to take a cold shower. The pillows felt like the came from Goodwill. They were lumps of foam in a bag. The lamp shade came off when bumped, because there was no screw on the top to hold it. There were no bedside outlets to charge anything. The clock looked like it had been dropped. Pieces were missing. The "breakfast" was NOT as pictured on their site. There were no utensils out. I had to look throught the cupboards for them. There was no hot food. The bread items were very dry . No tongs to retrieve the toast out of the toaster. And,the toilet also backed up the morning we left. When I related the issues to the staff at checkout, they offered no reduction in rate to compinsate for the problems.

Filthy room w/torn curtains broken toilet seat…

Before we received keys & saw room, was charged fee of $100 for any damages. We found damages already in the room; we took several pictures; informed desk clerk we won’t pay for any of them. Room smelled bad; carpets were filthy; after showering, walked barefoot on It; feet were dirty with black soot within two minutes; Had to rewash feet before getting dressed which stained the wash cloths Black. We believe it may have been black mold in the carpeting. Attached are some pics of damages we found when we entered the room.
