There was a car parked on the side of the front entrance from the moment we arrived to when we left. Not in a parking hole and had trash all around. The room was okay, the bed was clean. The bathroom was not. The shower was gross and so were the floors. The couch in the room was covered in stains. The room smelled weird and the air conditioner didnt work. Also we had a late checkout and were rudley interrupted THREE time's and the last time they didnt even bother to shut the door back all the way.

Convenient but needs to be cleaner

First the inn has no elevator and you have to walk up steps if your on another floor besodes the first floor. Room was dusty and we kept sneezing throughout the night, hand prints on the headboard, bathroom shower was dirty and the shower curtain had something nasty on it. Upon getting up around 2am to use the bathroom there was roaches crawling on the floor and in the tub. Luckily I always travel with my own cleaning supplies. The night served its purpose, but I will not book again.
