Should have slept in a Walmart parking lot

Booked for two nights and only stayed for one- took the loss of money to get out of there- I could have been the cigarette stench in the room, the bugs, no hot water or the shady folks hanging out in the parking lot trying to negotiate a lower rate for cash. Def sketch not for families

This property needs major help. From the outside it looked old a beat up. Once you got inside it was even worse. The rooms were large but nothing inside. Had a table but no chair. A bed that rumbled when you got on it. The bathroom was disturbing. Like they just filled it all with white puddy. Half redone and it looked horrible. There were many sketching figures appearing thruout the night. Seemed to have drug or sex work traffic constant. I would never stay there again. Dirty and unsafe. Had to move first room because the door was so kicked in you could have easily broken in.

me and my husband stayed here for my birthday. we go there and the guy at the desk wasn’t really interested in doing his job. we got the key went to our room. me and my husband looked at the room before settling in for the night. the sheets had a brown poop stain on them the bathroom door was not even working there was a towel on the floor the pillows were hard. so we took the sheets off. the next day me and husband decided to make a quick target trip after we ate. we got our own sheets and pillows. and we get to the door our key wasn’t working. we call the front desk guy and yet again dosent seem interested in his job. told us that key next to your phone won’t work. we have the key no where near our phones. come the following day we check out and tell the guys the inconveniences we endured. he just laughed in my face saying “why didn’t you tell us it’s a hotel.” to which i told him we did even my husband asked for new sheets and never got them. needless to say this was far the worst experience by far. so unclean and the area wasn’t making me or my husband feel safe.

I was told they “just became a super 8”. There were spiders in my bed. Mould in the bathroom. The room stunk of decades of smoking and mould. When I closed the bathroom door the smoke detector fell off the wall. There’s a community of “residents” who hang out outside the room and are noisy and smoke. The electrical outlets - some were missing - others upside down. No night lamps to charge my phone by bed. Oh… and I was greater at 6 am with NO HOT WATER. Do not stay here - sleep in your car first. I’m just happy mine wasn’t stolen and I was able to leave.

Very disappointed! When I arrived initially, I thought the GPS brought me to the wrong address because it looked abandoned, but I'd already pre-paid through Expedia so I said I'd go in and see. I was charged a $50 Deposit, which I'd done before, but when I asked for a Receipt there were 2 different dollar amounts shown. The Clerk assured me those amounts would "drop off" upon check-out, so I took his word for it. I then confirmed he had a "non-smoking" room for me, to which he responded, "Yes, all our rooms are non-smoking." When I got to the room, not only did it have a bad odor, but it smelled like smoke. There were baby spiders in several areas of the room, including on one of the pillows on the bed. There were at least 3 flies buzzing annoyingly around the room. It didn't look like the shower had been cleaned out, there was hair in the tub and on the wall. To be honest, it looked as if it had been vacant a long time prior to me checking in. Fast forward to Check-out, same Clerk from Check-in. I expressed my concerns about the smell of Smoke. (Woke up several times feeling awful- have Asthma) He then informed me it was "previously a smoking room and hadn't been renovated yet". He then went on to tell me they recently took over the property, aren't finished, and just started that side. Which explains why it looked abandoned. Also, the Charges are still incorrect. I'd just like a Full Refund at this point, but can't reach anyone at Expedia.

The room smelled like cigarette smoke. The table was sticky. There was no shower handle so we couldn’t shower. Only reason we didn’t ask to change rooms was because it was already late and we were about to go to sleep. We heard a couple of loud arguments happening outside from other guests. The AC was super loud every time it kicked on. We didn’t even stay the second night we paid for because of everything. The guy at the desk was not helpful when we asked if a refund was possible. It was my husband and I and our 2 year old. Would not recommend for families or anyone staying alone. Or really anyone.

Puddles on the floor. Shower was gross and would not warm up. Maintenance was rather dismissive. Apparently leaving the hotel room cleaner than you entered it means you dont get your deposit back? Saying they just renovated means they give you nothing in the room. Had to ask for a chair for the desk
