Room was dirty. We just wanted a place that was clean to be able to sleep and shower. There was crud on the floor of the shower, the sheets were gross, the toilet paper roll was broken, the drain in the sink was clogged, there were cigarette holes in one of the blankets, and the thermostat couldn't be adjusted. We ended up buying a fan and new sheets to get through one of the two nights we booked. We decided to go back home early rather stay the second night.

A place to stay for the night if you’re trying to save money. Wouldn’t stay here with my kids but my room doesn’t smell like smoke, the tv works, carpet seems new and the bed is okay. There’s a large mini fridge in the room and a microwave. Probably won’t shower here but I would stay here again next time I’m in the area on a budget. It’s like being in college again in a guys off campus apartment. Front desk lady was super friendly and approachable.

I have never given this bad of a review, but it is necessary. We get there and a few hours later my husband and I want to shower, they only put one wet and disgusting towel in the room that my husband said smelled like it was used. I called for another towel and more toilet paper because the barely there roll was sitting on the toilet with an empty one on the roll. I am then arguing with the woman at the front desk because she doesn’t want to give us anymore tp or another towel. She finally sighs and says okay and after 15 minutes my husband just went to get it himself. I open the shower curtain and there is a used bar of soap sitting right there. I refused to touch it and left it sitting there. My husband and I showered again this morning and as he went to dry his hair there was a dead cockroach in the hair dryer holder. There is a reason why this room is so cheap. If it is your only option then good luck. The chain lock was broken off our door and for being a non smoking room there sure were a lot of cigarette holes in the blanket. Right when we walked into the room it smelled like someone tried to cover up the smell of cigarettes with very strong cheap cologne that immediately made my asthma act up. We will never be staying here again and they need to get checked by the BBB or something. I woke up to get water and there were cockroaches just having a party in the sink. I drowned them all. Absolutely disgusting. I took another shower at my friends because I felt so gross.

None smoking room smelled heavily smoked. A lot Cigarette holes on the covered sheets. Stains on all pillows, blankets and bedsheets. Bathtub had very huge gross stains on it. We didn’t dare to take a shower even we had a flip flop on. A left over cup in the fridge. I wonder if bedsheets and blankets ever washed. And the room gives you free pet Kroaches.

Smokey Room with Cigarette Stains on Linens

If you are looking for a cheap hotel and you don't care about the smell of cigarettes, this one is for you. The room is dated, makeshift and the bed is not on a frame. The linens had cigarette burn stains on them. It is more like a smoky camping experience than a hotel stay.
