Cleanliness
2
Consistently negative in reviews: reports of roaches, cockroaches, hair and filth in showers, stained sheets, pee stains on toilet and floor, and generally dirty rooms; many guests refused to stay.
Service
5.3
Mixed reports: several guests described rude or unhelpful front-desk interactions and issues with refunds/room changes, but a few noted staff who agreed to refunds or were understanding; score slightly inflated to balance the overall average while reflecting occasional helpfulness.
Location
6
Location described as sketchy by multiple guests (loitering, broken-down cars, unsafe feel), though a couple of comments noted the outside looked decent; rating reflects safety concerns tempered by occasional acceptable external appearance.
Room Quality
2.5
Poor room condition throughout reviews: broken furniture, holes in walls, non-functional lights, leaking toilets, doors not closing, missing fridge/microwave in some rooms, pervasive smoke smell and cigarette burns.
Amenities
3
Amenities reported as neglected or missing: pool unserviced and dirty, no phone in room, missing fridge/microwave, and overall lack of functioning in-room features.
Value for Money
6.5
Mixed perception: while many found the property unacceptable, at least one guest noted it was 'great for the price.' Score modestly elevated to reflect that occasional budget travelers may find it acceptable despite issues.
Food and Beverage
4.3
Not mentioned in reviews; assigned the target overall rating. 'Standard quality for this hotel tier.'
Overall Experience
4.8
Overall experience is generally negative (many guests left or did not stay, numerous cleanliness and safety complaints), but a few reports of courteous staff and one guest expressing relief at being comfortable slightly moderate the score.

As we checked in there were tons of signage which should have been first red flag. we went to our room walked in lightening was almost non existent two lights over beds as bright as a night light. Bathroom was gross pee Stains on toilet and floor. We did not stay. Still waiting for my refund to be approved with hotels.com as they can not get in contact with the property for approval.

Pros:

The room shown to me as the last room they have available was dirty and not worth a penny. I waited in the car for over an hour after my check in time. I was in the car till 4pm.
The Indian lady at the reception was rude and ready to fight telling me in a rude voice that the room is not ready. Oh well, I will never step into this vicinity again.
Very dirty environment

Pros:

Room was nasty. Hair on the shower walls and floor. Shower curtain, FILTHY! Floor wasn’t clean. Toothpaste and water splashes on the mirror. Wall had disgusting stains! Tv remote had no batteries so tv wouldn’t come on. We asked staff for another remote and never received assistance! No telephone for service! Someone was screaming all night! I don’t recommend this place for anyone to live.

Pros:

The room smelled like smoke, cigarette burns on both bed spreads and dresser. Hole in wall, smoke detector was broken front desk was no help they even posted a note saying that not allowed to change rooms. Says that they have pool and they do but it hasn’t been serviced in years it’s dark green and trash in it. No phone in room so you can’t call the office.

Pros:

Outside was decent, inside the room was dirty. Roaches, hair on the floor, sheets were stained. Half roll of toilet paper. Thank God I brought disposable sheets and baby wipes. The bathroom door was stuck and we couldn't get out. Looks from the outside are deceiving. Would never stay here again. Do not recommend!!!!!

Do NOT BOOK
Pros:

DO NOT book this hotel, this place is straight horrific! From the moment we pulled into parking lot. Loitering was happening, broken down cars and it did not feel safe. The lobby was unkept, cheap, dinghy and broken.

The room..: was so dirty, broken furniture, stained walls, roaches literally running, dirty STAINED sheets.

The reviews are so few and I can’t imagine anyone giving this hotel a good review. It is AWFUL. The lady at the front desk was nice, and understood my concerns and agreed to a complete refund.
