I would’ve rather been camping outside as the place was disgusting. And for the price, it was ridiculous.
Pros:

The staff were trying

Cons:

The property was disgusting. There was food on the floor, the beds were gross. the shower tub would not drain, the mirror was falling off the wall. It had never been dusted. There were drug bags on the floor There were bugs everywhere. The towels were dirty, the sheets had holes in them. It was the worst place I’ve ever stayed in my life. I did not take any photos because I didn’t wanna remember any of it, and the inn and booking.com should be ashamed for how much they charged to stay there.

This hotel gives Quality Inn & Suites a bad name! Would lose my $$ had I canceled.
Pros:

Stayed 2 nights. 1st night was in handicapped room. It was filthy. Asked for another room the next morning for the 2nd night. I had to go to the front desk 3 times before being granted the request. That room was much cleaner, but the pillows were still not satisfactory. Both nights I put my t-shirt over the pillows so my face and head would not touch the pillowcase. Staff member, Eric, was accommodating in changing my room.

Cons:

Stayed 2 nights. 1st night was in handicapped room. It was filthy. Carpet was filthy. My side of the bed smelled of urine; maybe from carpet or possibly from the mattress. Bed was uncomfortable. Pillows were stinky...smelled like sweat and dirty hair. Sheets didn't seem clean. Bathtub was dirty. Fabric on chair was badly stained. Curtain sheer was stained. There was no computer in the area marked "Business Center". No ice in any dispenser on any floor. Breakfast room dirty. Driving onto property, there were weeds, dead shrubs and uncut grass. It was too late to cancel. I would have lost my money.

Pros:

The location was great.

Cons:

1. The thermostat in the lobby was set at 80 and it was 100 degrees outside.
2. The side door which is supposed to open with a key card, was broken and left open.
3. The wall in the shower had water stains from an obvious leak that had not been fixed. The wall had been painted a different color.
4. None of the bedding, drapes, wall color or carpet matched.
5. The weeds surrounding the buildings was knee high.
6. We were in room 122.
