It was nice and quiet in the environment. Only thing I didn’t like was that there was a mouse in my room (and it came back). Maintenance did help with setting traps at least to catch it.

Very inexpensive property. Probably because the bathroom door would not close completely and I pointed out to someone who I thought was a housekeeping supervisor that the ceiling above the toilet next to the bathtub appeared to have mold. Nothing was done about that during our 4 day stay. Otherwise, the place was quiet and I liked that they gave us new toweling every day.

I did not stay in this hotel. The outside looked extremely run down, but I paid for a budget hotel and that’s part of the deal sometimes. I went inside and the lobby seemed nice enough. And then, I got to the room. It was filthy! There were stains on the bedding, the chairs looked disgusting, one wall had stains all down one portion, the room had very obviously not even been somewhat cleaned beyond “straightening” the bed. I did not feel comfortable staying in that type of room and within thirty minutes I had left. The staff seemed concerned and stated that they would refund if possible, but since I had booked through Expedia I would need to go through them for the refund. I did, and the answer I received was that the management at the location would not approve the refund so they couldn’t do anything. I understand this is a budget location, but I have stayed in many of those before and I have always gotten a clean room. This was extremely disappointing all around to say the least.

It was one of the worst hotel/motel stays I've ever endured. The rooms were dirty, the floors were unvacuumed for the entire eight days we stayed. There was no routine towel/linen service. There was NO waste basket in the room. I repeatedly asked for one and 6 days into an 8 day stay, they finally provided one. The security door was broken and folks could enter the rear of the property with complete access. The table/desk in the room had no chair. I asked for one, and it took 2 days for them to finally provide one. When I went to the desk at the third day, the woman attender said you have to ask the housekeeping person for any towels, personally and if you don't run into them you can't receive clean towels. The hallways smell of a mix of pot and Clorox, and the shouting and screaming in the nearby rooms was outlandish. They sounded like domestic violence, but it was terrible. The coffee at the desk, was limited and ran out quickly. The pub and lounge that was advertised, is closed. It's storage space. None of the amenities were as advertised. There were no hangers in the closet. We bought some at the nearby dollar store. We had to buy our own TOILET paper, during the stay, because the staff would not assist in any of our routine, reasonable requests. This is a horrible, horrible place and should be removed from the Expedia listings.
