Run down and outdated. Stained toilet. Stained and rusty ceiling tiles. Bed was clean, but that was about it. The windows are filthy. Dogs are not supposed to be left unattended but that is not enforced, and I had to listen to a whining, barking dog for 2 hours before its owners returned. Unfortunately, they were drunk and louder than the dog was. All this said, you get what you pay for. Glad we didn’t stay during Parent’s weekend, when the price is 3 times the normal rate.

The room was clean. The whole place could use some updates, for example the carpeting could have been cleaned or replaced. Curtains had cuts in them and the comforter had a burn hole but we were in a non-smoking room.

It was a little nicer than expected (especially since the carpeting was replaced with a vinyl wood floor). It was clean, but various things were broken. The bathroom door didn’t close or lock. The bathroom fan wasn’t working. The remote needed batteries. The front desk staff were helpful.
