Needs a makeup over

Definitely needs a complete makeover. The room was dirty, walls were filthy and it smelled like straight cigarette in the room that I reserve was supposed to have been a non-smoking room. The bathroom dining will look like it was cleaned out the bed sheets had a blood stain on it. The pillows look like they weren’t even washed and luckily, I actually brought my own pillow and my own blanket.

Don’t stay here unless you have literally no other choice. There’s roaches and the doors look like they’ve been kicked in. This places needs a serious deep clean and remodeling. The appliances were not useable. There was rust in the microwave and the mini fridge was dirty. I requested a refund and still haven’t heard anything it’s been more than 3 days. Terrible customer service.
