Mold in room 123
Pros:

The location

Cons:

My room smell was musty. The carpet in my room was soaked and they would not change my room. It asked for a refund or a discount which was also denied. My clothes and rugs I bought are stained from the wet carpet in my room for the hotel. I would not book with this hotel anymore.

Change name to Worst western.
Pros:

The only thing I liked was they were able to get us in at 1.

Cons:

The air conditioning smells of mold and is not capable of keeping room cool. It was almost 80 degrees in the room by the time I fell asleep.
We had to use towels around door because the weatherstripping is gone and spiders and bugs were just crawling in.
They were redoing the parking lot and I ended up with a 1/2 inch of dirt and debris on my truck from them blowing dirt off pavement.
The hotel inside reminds you of the shining. Very much stuck in the 70’s.
The rooms on the outside are obviously used for long term stays. There was people smoking and talking all night outside my door. Cigarette butts everywhere. I wouldn’t stay there again for free.
