Room had not been properly cleaned, there was hair and debris in the bed spreads, bathroom, and furniture. I’m usually a pretty forgiving guest, so while the facility itself was rather rundown, dirty, and smelled of cigarettes and manure, I’ll could have overlooked that if my room was clean. This was far below expectations. I would not stay here again.

Everything was terrible!!! People smoking right outside the door, not secured building, bugs in the room, AC/Heat was so incredibly dirty which was unhealthy, bedspread was stained, there was one wimpy pillow, the TV didn't work. I had arrived at midnight from the airport and needed some rest before I drove home 1.5 hours - didn't get ANY and left only a couple of hours after getting there. UNSANITARY!!!

DO NOT STAY HERE! The sheets have horrible stains. The pillowcases smell like a dumpster. Bugs crawling on the walls. Someone’s hair on the towels. If you sit on the bed you’ll smell like 1970s smoke for three hours. I could not sleep here because I have self respect. The reviews on this hotel must be fake. Read them, they are all the same when mentioning how good this place is, the have obviously been ai generated or are completely fake, written by someone overseas. I showed up and the desk clerk was nowhere to be found for 20 minutes. I swear, if you don’t believe me, go ahead and rent this room… but I’ll bet you $100 that you’ll turn around and sleep in your car instead of staying here
