The property was what I expected for 2 stars. The sheets were clean and we had housekeeping every day. The water pressure was good and the air was working. For the cons. There were only 2 small towels for 2 of us for 3 nights. The mini fridge was 1/3 full of ice. Like it needed defrosting. The tv screen had crayon markings on it. The WiFi was really slow.

Dirty! Worst hotel I have ever stayed in!

If I could rate this a -100 I would the hotel is dirty,the bed sheets were used it had obvious bodily fluids on the sheets Im wondering the last time they were changed. Room had used condom under the bed and in the bathroom. The entire hotel smelled like dirty cigarettes. All night long was illicit behavior in the parking lot and in the hallways not a very safe or clean place to stay. I requested a refund but the hotel nor hotel.com would refund. I booked a room for three nights and left the next morning, I would’ve left that night, but I checked in too late and could not find another place to stay. I should have slept in my car. I need to call my credit card to deny charges because nobody should have to pay for a room like that. This hotel should not be in business!

This place is in deplorable condition, the building is falling apart, there where broken windows and its just plain filthy!!! There are questionable people walking around everywhere and when i went to check in the office was locked with no one to be found, there was a sign saying be back in 5-10 min i waited awhile and left!! My cab driver even asked if i was gonna be okay!! There was also an option to pay extra 4.50$ in case you wanted to cancel which i paid!! They refuse to give my money back and said i never attempted to check in!! This place shouldnt be open and the hotel next door say they hear this story all the time!!
