The overnight staff member who checked me in was functional but not at all welcoming. He seemed to take a very long time to do the check-in process and communicated almost nothing as he did so. The room was also functional. It was relatively clean but old and in need of some TLC. But I did appreciate the amenities of a kitchenette and the large tub, though the Jacuzzi jets did not work.

This place was a disaster and total disappointment. It was in a very shady area. The room was clean but there were holes in the walls, curtain was broke, the bathroom had a jacuzzi tube but it the jet’s looked dirty afraid to turn on. People were roaming the halls smoking weed. Non of the vending machines were in working order. The free breakfast was bagels, toast, boxed cereal and coffee. Our room keys and all of the other people staying in the hotel at the time keys stopped working first thing in the morning. No hotel staff to help anyone get back in to their rooms. One man stated his key card even shocked him when he attempted to open his door this morning. They also placed a 200$ charge to hold the room in case of incidentals. I have stayed at way better places that only charged 100$. I do not recommend this hotel. Travelocity should take it off of their list.
Bed frame was broke
Kept shutting off.
Broken
Very old and very used looking.

Old and very tired facility. Quite dirty in common areas though rooms were ok. Just old and worn out. Staff was helpful but seem to neglect the upkeep of the facilities. Also it's right on a busy noisy highway. Over priced for what's on offer.

Property should not be on Expedia. It’s awful. Possibly the worst hotel I have ever stopped in. It stinks of drugs, dank and mould. Insects walk the floors. Black mould around the bathroom. Windows not cleaned in decades if ever. Drug zombies walk the streets outside. $395 for two nights. Left after one. It was one night too many. Formal complaint to Expedia claiming leaving due to insect infestation was not successful despite photos of creatures on the floor in the room. Don’t bother with paying for Expedia insurance it’s a scam. They don’t pay out despite this being one of their valid reasons. As a seasoned Expedia user iam disgusted

“Nonsmoking” room smelled strongly of smoke. Asked front desk to remedy, they fogged the room with air freshener which gives me a headache and only masked the real problem. I can feel the bed springs on the bed. Not a pleasant experience at all.
