Needs some TLC
Pros:

Smelled musty. Worn down, Sheets and blankets worn and stained. Bed springs could be felt. Bathroom door wouldn't shut, sink faucet was barely attached to sink. Lots of dirt on doors, front desk nice. Hot shower, no bed bugs or roaches found in this room. We always check before we bring bags and such into room. Quiet outside. Breakfast is 1 Honey Bun and small juice or coffee.

Pros:

Hotel said they never got the change of dates and didn’t have a room for us when we got there and now is avoiding me/not letting speak with a manager that I know has been on the property in the last 3 days of me calling. Most unprofessional thing I’ve ever heard and now will not refund me. DO NOT BOOK HER

Pros:

I don't think I have ever stayed in a dirtier place. We got in super late and we had to leave very early so we didn't really have much of an option but i would never stay there again or recommend it. Stained sheets, hair innthe bed and tub. Shower had not been cleaned in years, paint peeling in tub, water dripping from the shower. Blood on the wall near the toilet. Honestly it was a nightmare. I checked for bed bugs and saw no signs. It was the only reason we crashed. Lady at the front desk was polite at check in.

Pros:

Bathroom doorknob turned around and around from inside the bathroom without opening the door. Had my husband been alone, he would have been stuck in the bathroom. We had to leave the door standing open the rest of our two night stay.
Black dust on ceiling near the ceiling fan and on the ceiling fan vent in the bathroom. Floor was not clean. Mattress and pillows were very comfortable.
