This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. My room was dirty other than clean sheets and towels. Fridge had rust and mold. Shower handle fell off. Multiple surfaces not wiped down (greasy fingerprints on tables). Roach in the overhead light. People in the next room having fights in the middle of the night and there were men walking back and forth in front of my door for an hour last night at 1:30 am smoking cigarettes and joints. This was coming through my ventilation system but I didn’t want to turn the fan off because the fight between a man and woman was so loud. There were kids playing in the parking lot the night before, which scares me for them! There were multiple drug deals going on in the parking lot on Friday night, all night long. Was supposed to travel with my infant granddaughter. So glad she got sick and had to stay home. This hotel needs to come off your website, Hotels.com! I could deal with the less than sanitary room, but the safety issues are not ok! My hair dryer cord caught fire this morning from faulty wiring in the place. This place needs to be condemned! I literally slept with a table in front of my door for safety purposes! DO NOT ADVISE STAYING HERE!!!
