Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Upon arriving in the room, we immediately noticed the stains and the tears in the carpet the graffiti on the walls, the broken sink, the torn bedding, the missing smoke detectors, mold on the floor, and what can only be described as possible drugs duct taped to the wall. When we immediately attempted to leave, the office was closed. We left and never stayed in the room. The area of town is very scetch. Pay the extra money and stay anywhere else.

Do not stay here. No staff. Exposed wiring in room. No working smoke detector. Bloody sheets. No towels. No toilet paper. Screaming people outside our windows all night (windows did not close). I feared for the safety of my family. Graffiti on the walls in the room. I would not recommend anyone ever staying here.
Smoke detector removed from wall and used to prop up the window….
Light switch that was broke and you could not switch the light.
