Let's start by my going into my room and noticing it was frigid in the room, it's the end of January and the bathroom window was wide open...WHY? I immediately closed it and turned the heat on. I then got into bed. Woke at about 11:00 pm freezing, the heater was turned on full blast, but didn't work. Calls to the front desk must have been routed to a call center. I kept getting someone who was trying to take a reservation. I woke in the morning after getting a sleeping bag out of my vehicle. I turned on some lights, saw someone's toenail clippings on the floor by the bed. I looked at the heater on the wall below the window and I should be glad it didn't turn on, it was filled with hair and nasty debris. The drawer by the sink was filled with hair and dirt. There was dirt in the corners of the room. This was probably the absolute worst room I have ever stayed in. I will NEVER stay here again. EVER. I have pictures......

The condition of the room was very unclean. Crumbs, hair, and other objects on the floor. The fridge was broken, the shower nozzle did not turn on, and there was a very foul fish odor in the room.

Book through oyo only, no third party!!!!!!

We showed up after a 6 hour drive only to a kiosk you have to use after 2pm!!!! Very rude and unhelpful woman working the kiosk. I was in tears, it was my daughters wedding weekend. I had reservations for 3 rooms for 2 nights through Hotels.com ( never booking on here ever again) A lot of family was staying there. The next morning, I have to say the women working on site helped and got me the rooms we needed. A big thanks to her!!! But also, my credit card was charged for NO SHOW!!! She took the charge off and comped my one room, that im grateful for. It was an experience!!! Thankfully it was resolved, but watch your credit card using any third party site. Good luck with anyone staying there. Bathroom in 211 was gross ! Plus the doorknob was shaking like it was fallin off Nasty place in same parking lot as a bar. People yelling in the parking lot all night I wished i would've booked best Western.

This was by far the worst place I have ever stayed! I tried to find another place, but everything was booked so I was stuck. Black mold in the bathroom was horrible, couldn’t use the shower because of the black mold, beds were the absolute worst. With springs that stab you the bedding was not clean so I slept on top of the bedding, so I went and purchased blankets because the heat barely worked in my room. It was not worth the money at all, was the biggest disappointment to drive over 6 hours to get stuck there. In the morning the attendant wouldn’t even come out from the office, I called and went the different transfers to finally reach the office where I was standing to check out, the lady answered and told me to just leave the keys, I could literally hear her talking through the thin walls/door. I was going to ask who I could speak to about a refund, maybe that’s why she hid is because of all the unhappy people.

The physical property did not match the images posted, the checkin process was through a Kiosk there was no person on the premsise to speak with, the steps leading up to the second floor were not properly secured to the stair case frame, the door to the room did not properly seal when closed, the room smelled of mildew, the bed was very squeaky and appeared very old, the room did not match the images posted and amenities listed were not present in the room (I.E. a desk and chair), physical room damage was painted over and not repaired and stickers being partially peeled off the door were present. Other individuals around the property were not following the minimum 10 feet from building smoking rule, and someone was in the parking directly in front of rooms spray painting a water pump from a ram truck he was actively working on. In its current condition I'd consider this location dilapidated, unsafe, unclean, unkept, poorly maintained, and not effectively managed.

No live person at night to check in. There is a virtual agent. The check in was not a problem, but it’s nice to have a live human in front of you. The property is old and run down. The rooms are extremely dirty. There was black mold in the bathroom. Food was left in the microwave. There was urine stains down the side of the toilet. Paint is chipped everywhere. I would not stay here again.
