The first room (114) had wallpaper falling down and mold everywhere. We requested a new room (214) and there was still bubbling wallpaper and mold on the walls, the chair and the lamp. In the bathroom we found cockroaches!! We asked for a full refund and was given half and told he wouldn’t be calling the manager again that night to call in the morning. They serve breakfast in the same building as cockroaches! Disgusting

About right for a cheap stay.

For the price, my stay was as I expected. No coffee maker, but the bed was clean and comfortable, even though the bed spread had a 4 inch rip. They did give me a room with a king bed instead of a queen that I was charged for. No problem.
