The carpets were dirty, and our room had pergo flooring instead of carpets. The beds were old, and broken down. Very uncomfortible.The hallways were filled with stale cigarette smoke. The parking lot was dirty, and we saw drug deals going on. This was one of the worst hotels I have ever experienced.

Skip this one

The pool was grimy and towel-less, and there was no signage indicating how to use the jacuzzi, which was only about eight degrees warmer than the pool. Also, my TV didn't function and everything was just a little too unclean to ignore. The hallways were particularly disgusting and really need an upgrade.
