Had to wait a front desk to get key for 20 min. Not the room I reserved. Asked for deposit that wasn't mention. Didn't get to check in until 8pm check out was at 11. They knocked on door before 1030 and stood outside my door the whole time waiting for me to leave, bed was leaning to one side noticably not just a little. LOCK didn't even work man I had to get screwdriver and tape I happened to have to secure the room at all..didn't have real high expectations but this was pretty bad.. i have stayed in a lot of hotels, of all kinds seen some rough ones, this is the first negative review I have EVER written.. im not one to complain but the checkout experience after not feeling like door was secure was biggest thing. Just the lock open with card, no latch or chain lock, also adjoining door I side was same way. With any effort next door guests could have entered at anytime

The room needs a complete remodeling, the lights in the room and bathroom do not work, there is no mirror in the sink, the mirror is literally on the floor, the blankets are not clean, they smell bad, the TV did not work well, it turned on and off. In general, the room has a bad smell. The connections of the light are exposed have no protection.

We didn’t even stay there. When we saw our room it had a double bed not the king we had requested. Went back to the desk and told them and he made me pull up the reservation on my phone to prove we had requested a king non smoking. Then we went to that room and it was nasty, the mattress did not even have a cover on it and the bed was made very sloppily. The room in all was not clean, the boy making them up was probably 12 yrs old. When went back to the desk and told them we didn’t feel comfortable staying there, he would not refund our money. It wasn’t a good experience

Blanket was stained. There were no wash cothes, no dead bolt or other locking device on entrance door other than the one knob. Our room had a inner door to a storage closet and we had no way to lock that door. There were dead crickets and bugs in the floor. Required a $50 deposit be put up at checkin. This place should be shut down.

It started off bad I was in line to get checked in after 3:00 p.m. someone walked in after me and the person behind the desk went directly to them to help them. After I finally got checked in my key wouldn't work to the door so I walked back talk to the person and they said well did you put the key next to your phone I said no it's been in my hand the whole time when I finally got into the room the cover for the battery case was not there in the battery was just hanging down he said I get that fix today he never came back. I came and went six times and each time he had to let me into my room using a regular key instead of the key card and each time he said he's got to replace the batteries he never did the room in the wash area was molded and damaged and I told him that I would like to change rooms he said that I already accepted that room I told him I didn't even look at it cuz I wasn't allowed in because the key card did not work. I was not granted access to my own room unless I went and got the front desk clerk so he could let me in by key do not stay here. The place should be closed down to to health reasons. I have pictures if you would like to see them
