I’ve worked in hospitality for the last 20 yrs. I received a 2 hour early check in for booking with Expedia. When we walked in at 1:00 pm the lobby smelled like a dirty bathroom and there was no one at the front desk. There was a sign saying the desk attendant was away assisting other guests. It took 3 minutes for her to come out. Check in is not until 3 so this is understandable. She had an inconvenienced attitude when asking what we needed. I said, I have a reservation and gave my name. She said check in wasn’t until 3:00 and I said I get an early one as an added amenity and had my phone open to the reservation details. She said something to the effect of “let me see your phone”’ so I showed her. She said oh yeah or something like that. The rest of check in was okay. We were given a first floor room at the end of the hall. There was an outside entrance with a door that slammed loudly, very often. The location was convenient but the noise was unfortunate and disturbing. This could have been the only room ready at our check in or it could have been retaliatory. The room had a off putting smell, like stale deodorizer, dark and drab with stained carpet and very “run down”. The bathroom floor and tub were dirty with hair and debris. The toilet was stained and there was no trash can. The queen bed was small, more like a full size mattress and the pillows were very small. The guest wifi never came up when searching for available networks, nor was the address written anywhere.

The hotel was affordable for how quickly I needed to book. However the bathtub and the sink in our bathroom clogged up really bad. The sink was a bit faster to drain, but the bathtub drained so slowly it was still full by the time we had to check out. We had also seen a few roaches, and I ended up killing one that was in the bathroom. I did tell the front desk, and they said that they’d report it to the GM, but have not heard anything back yet on that. The staff was nice, just a lil dismissive when I brought up the issues, which I know they’re probably tired of hearing the same complaints over and over, and from reading the other reviews, I know now I am not the only one to face these issues. Luckily I did not stay much longer, we ended up checking out way earlier than planned because the roach problem really turned us off.

Upon arrival we could not enter the hotel because the door was locked with no one at the front desk. After finally getting in to our room, there was a gaping hole in the ceiling. I called the front desk and they told me they were already aware of it but still booked that room for us. We also found multiple bugs in the bed, bathroom, and counter-space.

The place is not clean. Carpets in the corridors are dirty and smell awful. The floor of the kitchen area and bathroom in the room we stayed in was sticky with bad smell. No room service and we had to clean them ourselves. The fridge in the room was noisy.

While the working staff were helpful, it was difficult to overlook the multiple amenities that were not working/very difficult to use. When we got to the room, we noticed we were missing soap, shampoo, and towels. The lock on the front door was not working, and the microwave would continuously beep throughout the night. It did the job for a short stay, but the quality of the room was subpar.

Upon arrival check in was probably the only thing good out of this whole stay. Got into the hotel/ motel was filthy in hallways, floors etc. Getting into the room One bed was covered in long and short pieces of hair, I completely stripped bed and got clean sheets from downstairs. Bathroom floor seemed like it hadn’t been cleaned in months and the kitchen floor either. Had to make a quick run to dollar tree to get items to clean room. I would have rather stayed in my car for the days that we were there on business. 2/10

There were several fights in the hallways between people and in the lobby with the staff. We were there a total of 4 days. Our bathroom, it smelt horrible of cigarette smoke, we were out of shampoo and had limited towels for the amount of people that were registered for that room. My kids were very skeptical on staying alone in the hotel due to all the fights.
