Upon walking in the smoke free room it smelled of smoke and there was a bag over the smoke detector so the people before me probably were smoking. The tub wasnt clean nor the toilet.

The elevator was out. Had to climb 3 flights of stairs to our room. Stairwell doors were propped open which I am pretty certain is against fire code. Also, the stairwell was filthy with stained walls, railings, and stair treads. The room was fine and comfortable.

I say that this hotel a few days after my mother passed away in November. And I experience the most kindness that I've ever felt from strangers from the front desk once they found out I was grieving. This is why I decided to come back even though difficult but the staff is amazing and regardless of the sketchy area. I've always felt safe here even in the worst time of my life

First of all I commend the staff. They were very friendly and accomodating. My family and i were there for a cheer competition for my great granddaughter. After a 5 1/2 hr drive, we arrived aout an hour or so before check-in time. The desk clerk allowed us to check in early and waived the $25 fee. The room and bed was neat and clean. The bathroom was clean. The environment felt safe and no problems were noted. Would stay again
