The room was very run down. Paint pealing, stains on walls. I choose not to take a shower because it didn't look clean. The shower had a wood patch in the tile, 2 different handles, dark. We got there at 1230 and were exhausted, otherwise I would have gone looking for something else.

It wasn't clean. There was what looked like mold in the grout in the shower. There was a strain that looked like it could have been blood on the blanket. The towel bar was loose and coming out of the wall.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. After looking in shower and seeing condition of soap holder, I did not take a shower. Ran roach off the bed. Old hotel but not kept up. Room did not show owners took pride in the place. Possibly the worst place I have stayed - and I have stayed at some not good places in the last 62 years.

This hotel needs to be destroyed. It is very old. And they do not even clean the room. Advertised at $76 which is still too much for this dump. They charged me &100.

Not normal to have owner text and ask to pay before arriving. Not normal to ask for cash to be paid upon arrival instead of paying by credit card. Very shady activity by owner/management. Suspect some kind of fraudulent activity.

Before we even arrived I received an email stating I had checked into my room which I had not. Then when I arrived they said they had no room for me and wouldn't refund my money. I kept asking them to explain why I received an email stating I checked in but they acted like I was crazy and just kept saying there was an incident on the room and the cops locked it off

My grandson and I lasted about an hour here. Swore there was something crawling on me. "Residents" did not offer the safest of feelings either. No way! Put the key in the Key Drop and sent a message I was leaving and wanted my money back. Called Expedia and told them I could not believe they would promote a place like this on their platform!
