Absolute Nightmare when we checked in on 2/3. As you walk in you can see the dirty chairs. The reception staff greeted us in shorts and tshirt We couldn’t Stay in room 175 or at this hotel! The bad smell was unbearable and made me sick to my stomach. I had the worst experience at this hotel, and I strongly urge others to stay away! 1. Bed Bugs Infestation: next day we woke up covered in itchy, painful bites all over the arms. This is a serious health risk, and management is clearly not addressing the issue. 2. Mold and Filth Everywhere: The room phone was caked in grime and even had mold—disgusting! If basic things like phones aren’t cleaned, imagine how bad the rest of the room is! 3. Furniture Falling Apart: The chairs and couches in the lobby are stained, torn, and filthy. The place looks like it hasn’t been deep cleaned in years. This hotel is a hazard to your health and absolutely not worth the risk. Avoid at all costs! Management should be ashamed of the state of this place. I will be reporting this to the health department.

Strench in hallway that could only be removed by ripping up carpet and repainting walls. Plaster repairs made in room, but left white unpainted 4” areas on walls of room. Arms of upholstered chairs severely shredded by (most likely) cat. Pretty dismal

This hotel redefined for me what I previously thought was possible for a one star hotel. The level of filth was frankly shocking. Everything was rundown, dank, dirty, broken, cracked, smelled bad. I wanted to leave the moment I walked in. I don’t consider myself overly sensitive and I’ve stayed in lots of cheap hotels but this was jaw droppingly disgusting. I wish I had never set foot in that place.

It was a DISASTER.

This was the worst room we have Ever had. Had to remove bugs (I think they were cockroaches). Smells bad, carpet & walls and furniture dirty and in need of repair. Floors dirty in the corners and near the walls. Wall paper stapled at seams. Holes in the wall patched but not painted. Moldy and falling apart ceiling. Had a large puddle of water under the bed and AC when we woke up in the morning. I wouldn’t expect such a bad room for the price we paid. I wouldn’t stay here at Any price.
