The workers were kind and helpful; but our room was not cleaned. The bathroom floor had trash and hair on it, by the couch had a lot of food crumbs, and the fridge in the area of the freezer was gross apparently left from a previous guest.

Wet bathroom floor

The shower was for handicapped people and the water leaked all over the bathroom floor. The actual room was very nice. I would not recommend a handicapped room. We did not need it.

Awful smell from bug/foul smell repellant

Couldn't stay for the night... smell from some harsh chemicals was awful. Conditions are terrible - shower tub was peeling and walls had finish removed in places. Bed coverings were musty and sticky... i wouldn't book here even if it is free.
