I stayed in room 223 on 10/12/2024, there was mold all over the shower, the shower curtain was ripped off the wall so the show curtain wouldn’t stay shut. The towels were dirty and smelt musty. The front desk attendant was rude, and disrespectful while checking in. I would have rather stayed in my vehicle at this point.

Dirty and Smelly

The whole place smelled like old urine. There were stains on the tub and curtains. The bathroom door was broken and had obscenities carved into it. We were supposed to stay 2 nights, when I went to the front desk they had no other rooms to give me and refused to cancel the stay or even the 2nd night. Had to get a different hotel room elsewhere and everyone is refusing to give me a refund.
