House keeping never came to clean. Had to call for towels. Walls were disgustingly dirty. Bed had a sink hole in the middle that we had to fight to stay out of and on top of each other. Great location though and manager did come right up with towels and apologized.

Upon our arrival, the manager on duty was asleep, and the place locked up. We had to knock on the door multiple time to be able to get/check in! The room had a rough mold/musk smell, and the place dusty and carpets are not clean. The bed cover was burn with cigarette holes, the main bathroom towels were literally worn out, should've been thrown away! The hand towel and the bed sheets had stains of what seemed to be blood stains. The place was in a really poor condition. On a positive note, the gentleman who checked us in/out, was nice upon our departure. But that's about it! Sorry, I do not recommend this place.

The bathroom toilet did not flush properly. There were no plastic cups for water. The king size bed was not set properly on foundation. Ok for one night.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The man who checked me in was very polite and informative. Customer service wasn't the issue. Unfortunately, the room smelled strong of dollar store room spray, no screen on the window that was left open prior to check in, there was dirt on the carpet, random hair in the bed and on the towels, grime in the sink/shower and to top it off absolutely no toilet paper in the room. The walls are thin and I heard the people above me at all hours of the night coming and going. Lead me to believe there was some illegal activity going on especially when there was a cop car hanging out in the parking lot when I arrived at 9:30pm. This was the only room I could find under $150 but I would have opted for a different selection had I known. Wouldn't recommend.

Beds were clean, but the bathroom was gross and the toilet had to be plunged multiple times in our one night stay. The room was musty and didn’t cool off even after running the AC all night. Was not worth the money we saved.
