Don’t stay here. When we arrived the parking lot was filled with people loitering around and had a sketchy feel to it. We got to the room and it was not terrible, not the best but we soon realized that the door did not lock at all. The only good thing was that the front desk person was kind enough to offer an upgraded room, but we settled on leaving instead because it felt super sketchy.

Do not stay here. So many issues I don’t know where to start. There was NO shower curtain. One towel. Well, 1 washcloth, 1 hand towel, and 1 shower towel. Pool is closed. Greeted by a man smoking a clove at the front door in pajamas. Several people just hanging around the entrance, most looked homeless and/or on drugs. No elevator, we were on the second floor. I was walking barefoot in the room and leaving clean spots behind. Gum washed into the sheet. Blood splatter on the ceiling!!! Room is bogged out with smoke( not just cigarette smoke)and my two children were with me. The entire floor was nonsmoking but as we left it was like walking through fog down the hall. I bet I could get any number of drugs, or a hooker if I had knocked on some doors. I had a very foul smelling man follow me out down the hall when I went to get something from my car. The tub was a mess with scrapes. Food on the comforter. Mascara on the pillow case. Long brown hair on the washcloth. (We are blondes) A crucifix left on the top of the headboard. The remote only had one battery. The internet was spotty at best. My husband was with us but he can’t do anything against a gun or a shooting in the next room and a stray bullet hitting one of my children. I apologize if this is a bit all over the place, I just keep remembering more. This was an awful experience and my family and I have made light of it BUT REALLY, do not book there. We left after an hour. I did not feel my family was safe at all.

When we showed up there was guys drinking in the parking lot, there were people in a car smoking weed, and on the other side of the building too. Took a while to get the lady to come to check us in I think she was outside. The room was non smoking but smelled like someone was smoking in jt for a long time. The fridge was really working, and floor was covered in dust and dirt, there was dust bunnies all along the popcorn ceiling. We immediately left and got a new hotel. Bc my wife didn’t feel safe.

When we first arrived at the hotel our rooms door is broken, the room smelled of stale alcohol, dead bugs were on the floors. We then were told that despite the website saying there was free breakfast, a pool, and free wifi. They didn't have ANY of those things. The pool was completely drained of water. When we asked for extra pillows and soap. They said they were out of both. And around midnight while we were sleeping a man opened our door stating there must have been a mix up in the system and then left. We will NOT be staying again.

Not smoke free

The room was ok and the bed was comfortable, what I expected for the price. The hotel is supposed to be smoke free, however my room reeked of cigarette smoke.

Pool was closed. Everything was in disrepair. Fire extinguisher was missing from box. Our friends' room didn't even have a latching door. My room was given away when my things were in it. Then instead of moving the other people they tried to give my room to, they took my things and put them in the office. Will never stay here again. What a nightmare.

I checked in my room at 245pm check was fine. When I came back to my room I went to turn tv on and no battery in remote. Called mgr on duty and he said no batteries no tv for the night. Very rude and inconsiderate. I went to cvs and bought batteries so I could watch tv. I have stayed here two other times and no problem. Will not come back

Only good thing is pets stay free

The room says non-smoking yet the beds smelled heavily of cigarette smoke and there were cigarette burns on the blanket. The door did not close very easily. I had to push pretty hard to get it to latch, and the deadbolt would not engage. The pool ( as always when I stay here) was closed for maintenance. The remote control would not change the channel on the TV, just controlled the volume and on/off feature. I went to the desk on the second day of my stay to see about getting it fixed. The person was new and didn't know how to help, but said he would consult a coworker who lived on the grounds. Neither person ever got back to me. The only plus is pets stay free. The beds are very hard and there was only soap offered for a shower. This was an emergency family trip for me so I did not pack shampoo so I was out of luck. I also put a bag of trash outside my door on the first day, and it was never collected, so I stuffed it into a garbage can outside the back door. The back door did not close all the way, so security is not that important to this establishment. No microwave or coffee maker in the room - there is a small microwave in the lobby.
