    The side door was supposed to be locked at all times, but was unlocked during our entire stay. We had the do not disturb sign on our door yet someone knocked on our door and tried coming in while we were sleeping.

    It was absolutely filthy and disgusting! Ripped carpeting, place smelled terrible, bathroom dirty, towels had stains! Housekeeping staff smoking in lobby when they thought no one was there!

    1TeresaPosted on: 4-9-2024

    The location was perfect as far as it¿s distance to the college that I was visiting.

    The hotel was not very clean, and looked like it was tinned down. My bathroom sink was cracked and epoxied together. Heat was nice. Broken, changed rooms. The food was terrible. Staff lied about being discounted.

    About the only thing I liked about this hotel was that I was able to get a room on a very busy weekend.

    The room smelled like smoke even though it was a non-smoking room. The toilet leaked all over the bathroom. When I woke up in the morning I had bug bites on me. Given a chance to stay in this place again or sleep in my car, I will choose my car.

    The Coffee was good. The staff were pleasant.

    Room was not properly cleaned. Lots of Animal hair on bed. (Exacerbated my allergies) Mold in room and Bathroom. Wall paper was peeling. The rooms are in need of major renovations.

    1BethPosted on: 8-29-2023

    It was the dirtiest hotel I've ever stayed at. The room and hall carpets were obviously not vacuumed in a long time. There was dust throughout our room. The tub had a terrible looking stain and filled with 3 inches of water when showering. Limited breakf

    There were no positive aspects about the hotel. It was extremely overpriced for what we received.

    The price; room; breakfast; and lack of cleanliness.

    1TaraPosted on: 8-8-2023

    The woman at the front desk was polite and gave us a full refund because of the room conditions.

    The first room we checked into had dirt, mud and stones all over the floor and dirty sheets, second room had a full clogged toilet, third room smelled of mold. The rooms had peeling wallpaper and were in bad shape.

    Good location and staff was nice enough

    Damp air, stained walls and carpet, non-smoking room smelled of smoke, carpets damp, toilet ran, fridge didn¿t work

    1Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-25-2023

    It was very dingy. The wallpaper was peeling off the walls. The room smelled like the cleaner used to clean the room. It was basically old and dingy. Also, the door to the outside of the hotel was supposed to be locked, and wasn't. Someone from the o
