The property was disgusting, smelled like mold and mildew, broken down car parked outside, AC didn't work well, no smoke alarm, dirty bed sheets, dirty nasty carpet, gross bathroom, locks didn't work correctly on doors. Peephole was removed to leave an open hole, bedbugs, 'parking lot' in rear was non-existent, full of mud and potholes. Laundry, vending and ice machines, all unplugged or broken. No coffee pot or table and chairs in room. Used mattresses and furniture and appliances all lined the back porch. Believe ALL bad reviews!! Would add pics, but wouldn't let me.

Worst accommodations ever!!

Under construction and not informed on web site. Water contaminated..had to wash up with bottled water, which I purchased. Given 2 bottles when I saw the water contaminated sign. Purchased my own bedding…mattress was filthy. Refrigerator was so dirty. Had to Lysol everything! No closet to hang clothes. This all should have been addressed on the web site

This applies to guys, if you need an affordable place to stay for the night, get up brush your teeth and leave, then this is it. Ladies don't even think about staying here, you will cry and you will be pissed off at your man, if you stay here. I checked in late at night, took a shower, warmed up my food container, then went straight to bed. I woke up brushed my teeth and left. I told the staff that one of the outlets stopped working and that the microwave didn't have a glass plate. They said they would look into it. They are renovating the place as well. so hopefully it gets better.

Disappointment

Despite booking a reservation, they did not have the reservation, and they said they had no rooms available, despite there only appearing to be a few cars in the parking lot. It seemed like part of the ceiling was falling down inside, and it was generally poorly kept.

I didn't like anything. I take that back. They did have hot water and the a/c worked. The towels in the bathroom needed to be replaced. The light over the Sink, you had to plug in to socket. The hot water knob on the tub was hanging on by a thread. I floor or rug was dirty. One walk across it and my socks were dirty, TV didn't work. Bed was poor and pillowcases and sheets need replacing. That Inn was by far the worst I've ever stayed in. The door going outside was damaged by a dog i guess. the security chain was missing. The office was trashed. I guess that is enough. The girl waiting on me was nice. She cancled my next two nights......

Didn’t know about the fire on 1/2 the rooms. Staff said all cables burnt up so no TV. I guess that’s why the smoke detector is missing in the room too, lol.

When we arrived they did not have our names, just ask for the type of room. Although almost empty they did not have a king bed available. They gave us the room with the Jacuzzi at no extra cost. The lady was polite, but the place was a mess. It needs a full upgrade.

I wouldn't let my worst enemy stay there... First, there were boarded up doors and windows on the first room next to the main entrance. Second, we arrived at 6:30pm and there was a sign at the front desk that said "Back at 7", so there was no one there to even book us in... There was no heat in the lobby at all, it was ice cold. There were ceiling tiles missing all through the hallways, there was a white christmas tree with lights on it (plugged in... FEBRUARY!) WHY IS THIS PLACE EVEN ALLOWED TO LIST ROOMS AVAILABLE???? We got right back in our vehicle and left... NIGHTMARE!!!

The whole facility is in need of repair. The people are wonderful, but the rooms need some help. The only positive is that a new toilet had been installed and worked properly. The beds were okay, but overall not much has been done to update since the 1960s.
