"Awful"

Overall Score1.0/ 5

Avoid this hotel if possible. The room was filthy. There was a washcloth from a previous guest hanging over the curtain rod in the shower. The lamp next to the bed was broken. There is no coffee maker in the room. The refrigerator could not be opened normally as it sits down inside a a cabinet that was clearly not made for it. The breakfast area was n to particularly clean either, nor was it particularly well fortified. This was quite simply one of the worst hotel experiences I've ever had.

Howrd F. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from

05-Mar-2025 Verified Review, stayed from Sat Mar 01 to Sun Mar 02 2025 at a $185.99 average nightly rate.

"Horrible!"

Overall Score1.0/ 5

First room they gave us had dead flies all over the bed and walls. Sticky fly traps draped above the bed. Dirty floors. Second room refrigerator and hair dryer did not work. Very limited hot water in the shower but hot at the sink. Sink was cracked, Beds had stains all over. Mold in bed and bathroom area.

"Bugs in Bathroom/Stains On Bed."

Overall Score3.0/ 5

The people who checked us in were nice and the amenities were decent. But there were some mysterious stains on the fitted sheet of the bed and roaches in the bathroom by the end of every day. We would squish and flush the ones we saw but then lo and behold, new ones would be back.

Gabrielle M. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from

26-Sep-2024 Verified Review, stayed from Fri Sep 20 to Tue Sep 24 2024 at a $95.55 average nightly rate.

"Overpriced"

Overall Score3.0/ 5

The room was way over priced for an out dated room that was needing a lot of attention. Missing pillows, missing lightbulbs, missing a waste basket, the toilet seat was very loose and moved a lot. No soap in the shower however the soap paper from the previous guest was laying in there. Very disappointed for the amount of money.

Nancy L. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from

07-Aug-2024 Verified Review, stayed from Sat Aug 03 to Sun Aug 04 2024 at a $196.99 average nightly rate.
