Dont stay here!
It was one of the nastiest rooms ive stayed in, in 20 yrs. Outdated, cheap, ragged look and worn everything. Sheets didnt look clean so much i almost slept in my car. I didnt know what kind of bug was in there but i left the lights on and kept my bags on the bed. The cheap chinese dresser wasnt even sturdy enough for me to put my backpack on without tipping over. Wish i had time to get another place that night but i had to be somewhere 2 hrs after i checked in. The peephole had a wad of toilet paper in it. Standards are bottom line only there and i doubt theyd remodel unless threatend by corporate. Any fixure was old and peeling. Safe was rusty and out in the open.

Room 234. Bathroom floor had loose tile with black mold. Bedroom had horrible creaking floor. AC worked for 20 minutes then stopped. Refrigerator shuddered loudly when it stopped. Pillows were good.

Free breakfast wasn’t much. Only coffee, juice, oatmeal packets, green apple! Used to have frozen breakfast sandwich and granola bars!
The shower knob was so tight and couldn’t get the water from dripping after use!
No facial tissues in the bathroom.

Affordable
It was great for what I needed. A place to sleep and shower. Can’t complain about affordable and everyone was nice. This isn’t 5 start but that’s not what I was going for.

Wishing for Better Accommodations
Got into bed and noticed sheet had a small spot of black crusty stuff on it. My husband took a shower and tub wouldn’t drain or he could not shut off faucet so called front desk at 7:00 in morning. I asked them to change sheets and fix shower. We got back around 2:30 and neither was done. Need to be updated. We left and didn’t stay second night we paid for.
