On the website it said for $76 a night and you guys charged me 100. I think that was a little outrageous for your property and your hotel stay. On the website is it Continental breakfast and we did not get that so we got ripped off.

Good value. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The breakfast was gone by 6:30 am. It was either eaten by hungry travelers or stolen by a homeless person. There were only like 7 other people there and no one was up when I was leaving. The front desk is not staffed

When they say you get what you paid for that is a true statement when booking at this property. Friday there is no one at the desk but a guy on a robot to check you in. Once I got checked in the light did not work, holes in the wall, sheets were stained with god know what, holes in the sheets and worst of all a bedbug was found in the bed. All the property offer was a new room and my deposit. I was there for 5 minutes and left to a different hotel. Run far away from this place as fast as you can. Do not even take a look at this place. I would not have my worst enemy stay here that’s how horrible it was.
