They do not clean their bedrooms when I arrived at the hotel. I was given a key card to room 100 I walked in and there was pee and stains all over the toilet. I walked all the way to the front desk and she proceeded to hand me key card to number 102 And told me to check 102 when I went to One 02102 room was completely disgusting not clean from the prior stay. I walked all the way back up to the front desk where she proceeded to give me another key card and told me to check 103 Bathroom had mold all over it . I ended up asking for cleaning materials for room number 102 cleaned it myself and went to sleep that night. I will never stay here again. I had to stay here due to an emergency reason only hotel in the vicinity with rooms.

Travelers Beware.
First off, I want to say that the front desk individual was kind and hospitable. Also, the air condition inside my assigned guestroom was functional. That being said, the terrible hotel experience of mine began when I first arrived at the hotel location. The location is remote and gives off a creepy vibe on the outside once the sun sets (outside lighting is unsafe/very poor quality and there isn't much else around the area). Once approaching the front hotel entrance, there was one entrance door with shattered glass and the front entrance door handles clearly have not been sanitized in a while and were in poor condition. Inside the lobby, a heavy mildew aroma permeates the lobby atmosphere. Throughout the first floor hallways, various structural blemishes stood out and various forms of structural damage was clearly visible. The room I was assigned was very unsanitary (hair in the bathroom sink, all bathroom towels were stained to various degrees, bathroom flooring had visibly not been cleaned recently, shower/tub combo had clearly not been cleaned recently, the bathroom sink had various signs of untidiness and was in disrepair, the assigned guestroom had a musky/mildew scent throughout, the bedding blanket and cover sheet was stained in various areas by various colored substances, every surface inside my guestroom had visibly not been sanitized/cleaned in a while, and the guestroom couch was stained in various places. Very disappointed in the hotel experience.

Hotel was rundown and dirty. The pictures paint a false picture of how the place really is. Elevator doesn't work, didn't provide breakfast, pool was GREEN. Hotel had a nasty stench. Will never stay there again. TV wasn't even hooked up, didn't have a remote at all.

Check in with the assumption of breakfast, pool and pets staying free like advertised. Was informed no breakfast, pool was drained and pets cost $25 per night. Had no choice but to stay due to reservation that night. We get to our room and as you walk in on the mirror in the entry way was a smashed bed bug, in the bathroom nothing but dead bugs and a living one swimming inside the toilet bowl. The shower/tub looks as if you better wear shoes while rinsing off, and the hot water lasted 5-10 mins at most… around every corner was dirt, bugs.. when I walked towards the bed and my shoes crunched I about had it. The fridge provided in the corner near the bathroom was broke, seal hanging out of it. Oh and when we walked to the room it’s freezing, then inside the room the temp was set at 60 degrees.. I flipped the bedding after I noticed that smashed bug on the mirror and indeed the bed closest to that mirror had blood stains, the bed nearest to the air unit was decent so we all slept on that bed. They only stock the double bed room with one towel and hand towel and wash cloth, you’d expect 2 beds maybe 4 of each but we got 1… please please please examine before settling… do not reserve because they do not give refunds, also there was a strong chemical smell, strong night that I woke up with a sore throat and dried skin… not worth the money in my opinion due to false advertising on this app and so unclean… The ONLY good thing about this stat was the pleasant employee that afternoon.
