Our whole 2 days

The lobby smell of pot. There was some broken stuff in the room along with hair dye on a wall. My daughter’s bed kept moving when she sate down on it. People don’t read if people are staying more one night so they come knocking on the door with a room key waking people up. Someone had a dog that barked a lot & people across the hall were load. We were disappointed with our stay.

You get what you pay for. Super dirty and gross from the entry to the rooms. Side door had no place for cigarette butts so they are just all over the ground. Smelled like pot by the rooms. Bathroom was very dirty. Bed was old and lumpy. Very loud heater and large gaps under the door. Bathroom door does not open all the way as it hits the toilet. Had to press 0 for a desk person on a very dirty and broken phone at check in. Was not friendly at all.

You Get What You Pay For – But They Could Try Harder At only $47 a night, expectations weren’t high, but they could at least try a little harder. The room looked dirty, light bulbs were missing, and the TV didn’t work—there weren’t even batteries in the remote. The AC unit was broken, making it uncomfortable to stay in. The building didn’t feel secure, and people were roaming the halls all night, making it hard to get any sleep. Even for a budget stay, basic maintenance and cleanliness should be a priority. I wouldn’t recommend it.

The fire alarm was disconnected. The tub had built up hard water deposits in the drain and no drain plug. The cover for the bathroom fan/light was sitting on top of the towel holder and filthy dirty. The floor had dirt and grease on it. The heater was noisy, and the bed had a sheet and a bedspread that was just as thin as the sheet as it's only covers. The man checking us in was not friendly and didn't seem to know much. The hallway carpets and stairs needed a good vaccuming.
