Floor was dirty and turned the bottom of my white socks black. Furniture is old.TV and frig were ok. Parking was ok. Breakfast was handed out in a brown paper bag. Room is not worth the $120 nightly rate... it was the lowest price in town though. Bed was ok. I give it 2 stars

Second unhappy hotel you sent me to hotels.com!!!!
The hotel room was ver interesting. The floorboards were peeling off. There were no drawers in the side tables, like all four that’s so odd. There were no soaps to wash hands, the smell was interesting and very smuggy rooms. Non smoking room smelled very much of smoke. The whole building was just barely maintained. Don’t you dare be ten minutes behind checkout though because you will be harassed

Trash Motel not Hotel
Complete trash. Don’t come here! The service sucks! No WiFi code readily available. No actual breakfast just a lunch bag like if someone was in jail. Left me on the 3rd floor and tried to have me walk back and forth for my own service that I paid for.
