While staff was nice the hotel was extremely filthy. There was pub hairs all over toilet the tub was running and would not shut off when we went into the room. The smell was the absolute worse!! Non smoking room that someone clearly smoked in for awhile. The walls had dirt all up and down them bathtub was non useable. Beds were comfy and didn’t see any bugs so that is a plus but the condition was just mind blowing locks busted off also

Disgusting room, smelled of mold and cigarette. Found enough long hair in the bathroom wall to make a pet. Do not stay here if you like even half way clean rooms.

This place was so disgusting that we left without staying. Check in was a red flag as it looked like the inside of someone’s garage. We had to sign a hand written photo copied “no refunds” note before handed our room key. We got to our room and there was mold, hair, and stains on the bedsheet, the bathroom was filthy of feces all over the toilet, the room smelled terriblyodf mold and cigarette smoke, and there was a hole in the wall covered by a piece of laminate flooring screwed to the wall. We tried to get a refund but the office staff declined and offered to give us a new room. We chose to leave because the hotel was so gross and a new room probably wouldn’t have been any better.
