Hotel is closed
Pulled up to the hotel, which we already paid for, and it was closed. No cars, lights on in the lobby, no one there, and closed signs on all the doors. Called hotels.com and they had no idea. Still waiting for a refund. And the hotel is still listed a available on here so how are they still letting people book at a hotel that has closed up?

DON’T BOOK HERE
The hotel was vacant upon arrival and there were 2 taped pieces of paper on the door saying closed. When you drive 3+ hours to arrive at a closed hotel, it is very infuriating!

Terrible, don’t stay here. Basically no AC in the room and it was a mess. The clerk was letting everyone check their rooms before checking in because they were so bad.

Nasty and dangerous
Room was filthy and deplorable. When I went to plug in my cellphone, dead roaches were all over the socket. There was a recent roach infestation there. Water leaked from the ac inside and outside of the room. The door locks but still has a gap when you close it. I had to move the chair in front of the door to make sure no one could bust in on me. I was so nervous about the room that I checked in shortly before midnight and was out of there by daybreak. I could not sleep a wink there. Let’s not even begin to talk about the fact that there is not an elevator and the stairs are really steep. A complete death trap! I would have had a better stay at motel 6 for less.
