I booked a stay at this hotel with my family we are active duty needed a place for the night while moving and this place did not provide the correct pictures of the rooms. We brought the owner up to see the room and cockroaches running across the floor and he said it was clean and we even ran our hand on the service of the entrance and our hands were covered in dirt. We begged for a refund to go get a place for the night and he was rude disrespectful and said he would not refund us. So he charged us and we left to a hotel that was clean and no bugs. Never book here. We are active duty and explained we were in He was rude for an hour and the kids were exhausted so we had to leave. He is a thief and this hotel is the worst place I’ve ever seen. This is the first negative review I’ve ever posted for a business.
