Worst hotel I've ever stayed at. Nastiest place I have ever stayed. Drug dealers living at hotel and doing drug deals in parking lot. Found condom wrappers, and drugs in my room. Staff was very rude. Burn holes and blood on sheets. Had to ask for and change my own sheets, and had to clean my own room. This place should be shut down.
