This is a terrible place. towel, bed sheet are super dirty. Bath room is leaking and floor is Wet. This room is not fit for living. I afraid i see black feces on bed and i hope it is not bed bug. Terrible motel and should be reported to city for unhygienic condition. Drug smell is a lot outside and a women fighting with her boyfriend or husband next room with very load way. Pictures are too way off the actual motel condition.

The room didn't have no trash cans. All the cabinets were nailed. Shut, the drawers were nailed. Shut the lock to shut the door was loose where anyone could just bust in the room. At any point in time, the AC barely worked. The bathroom had rust everywhere. Hair was all in the shower like they didn't even clean it. And there were stains all over the towels. I will never stay there again.

PLEASE READ!! This place is a dump! The listing said “newly renovated”…HA!! Where to begin? The kitchenette light didn’t work, it’s cabinets were totally rusted, the shower curtain was covered in mold, there was unidentified liquid spots on the mirror, a pube AND WATER in the bathtub (I checked in around 11pm-why was it still wet?), it was supposed to be non-smoking, but I guarantee it was smoked in. My hair, clothes, bags, and extra blanket all smelled like smoke when I left! The sink handle fell off when I turned on the water. I had a huge roach! And I’m 99% certain the door wasn’t closed when I unlocked it. (It’s a key, not a card) The bed was barely/sloppily made. I was alone and did not feel safe here. I tried canceling my second night, but the employee said hotels.com would have to refund. So they’re looking into it. Doubtful, though. I still left and didn’t stay the second night! PLEASE DON’T STAY HERE!
