The bathtub was gross, long hair on the walls. No water pressure. The towel rack just fell off.

Make this hotel your LAST option.
Pros:

That it was close to a Starbucks and McDonalds

Cons:

The walls felt thin. Heard everything in the hallway. Walking into the hotel there was a strong fragrance that instantly gave you a headache. The elevator was sketchy. The hotel room stunk as well as the bed. The bathtub was dirty.

I was disappointed with no elevator and how dirty my hotel room was. The staff was friendly...
Pros:

Breakfast was a good selection. It is a great location. The beds were comfortable and it was a quiet place and I slept well.

Cons:

There was visible black mold inside the toilet bowl around the ring of it. There was a folded empty bag of funyuns on the inside of the recliner. There was old food that appeared to be cheese and grease on the glass microwave tray. I questioned if the housekeepers actually cleaned my room at all...

Helpful staff, room very dirty-do not recommend
Pros:

The staff was friendly and very helpful. The room size was as expected.

Cons:

The hotel room itself was very dirty. There was unknown crumbs all over the floor, fast food garbage around the room, and I found several large dead bugs. There was hair all over the beds when the comforter was pulled back and white mystery stains on the window and curtain next to the bed. I was in town as my toddler had surgery the next morning and required a sanitation bath. The bathtub was not only covered with rust, there was visible dirt and hairs all over the tub. Very very disappointed in the room cleanliness. Hats off to your front staff for handling the situation as needed, but will not stay again or recommend to anyone.
