Avoid at all cost

The hotel room was very dirty. The sheets were covered with black specs of dirt, the sheets had spots on them making us wonder if they were stained or left from the last guest. By walking barefoot on the floor, my perfectly clean feet turned black. The worst part was that the two carpets in the room had an overwhelming smell of dog urine. We were tired after attending the concert in South Bend so we went to bed, but because the room was so unpleasant with the very loud fridge and the strong smell of dog urine we got in the car at 4am and started the 8 hour drive back home. We had a much different plan in mind when we booked the stay. We understood it would be a budget accommodation but we didn’t realize that it would be so dirty.

The "Ratz" Carlton

Older property. Poorly maintained. Absolutely filthy. Should be bulldozed immediately. Spider webs, mold, dirty and absurdly smelly. They claim to be 100% non-smoking, but our room had an overwhelming smell of stale cigarette smoke. Asked to switch rooms and the second room was even worse. The fridge was broken and the lamp was shorted out. They allow dogs at the motel and i saw people letting their dog pee on a pad just inside their door. I stay in hotels at least 50 times a year and this was the grossest place I've stayed in years. The people that are rating this property as clean most live in a trash dumpster. My wife and I are now calling this hell hole the Ratz Carlton.
