It smelled, the sheets and bedding and towels had stains all over. The heater wasn’t working and it was freezing. There was suspicious activity going on there at night. Did not feel safe. We had the place for 2 nights, but only stayed one.

The staff was friendly, but the hotel was sketchy. It looks like a place where some shady activity goes on after hours. We booked a room for 2 nights but ended up leaving after 1 night for the above reasons.
