The lady working the desk was rude and they guy that came in wasn’t much better when we told them we just wanted the money back for the rest of our stay because we was leaving because of the conditions we was experiencing.we stayed in room 202.

Great Location if you just need to sleep one night.
Pros:

In a perfect place. If all you need is a bed for one night it will do. It was Large. The TV was tiny. Flooring was newer and it was painted. It needed repairs, but they tried to fix it as good as it could be... Lipstick on a pig.

Cons:

There was rot and mold in the bathroom from no ventilation. The sheets had several burn holes. The outside was very old looking.

Stay away if possible
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The tiles in the shower fell while my son was in the shower. The fridge didn't work if the microwave was plugged in. We told the over night guy and he said I can't do anything about it. They was supposed to refund us for one night and they guy quit and they never refunded it back to our card.
