Needs some TLC

Smelled musty. Worn down, Sheets and blankets worn and stained. Bed springs could be felt. Bathroom door wouldn't shut, sink faucet was barely attached to sink. Lots of dirt on doors, front desk nice. Hot shower, no bed bugs or roaches found in this room. We always check before we bring bags and such into room. Quiet outside. Breakfast is 1 Honey Bun and small juice or coffee.

I don't think I have ever stayed in a dirtier place. We got in super late and we had to leave very early so we didn't really have much of an option but i would never stay there again or recommend it. Stained sheets, hair innthe bed and tub. Shower had not been cleaned in years, paint peeling in tub, water dripping from the shower. Blood on the wall near the toilet. Honestly it was a nightmare. I checked for bed bugs and saw no signs. It was the only reason we crashed. Lady at the front desk was polite at check in.
