Terrible, don’t stay here. Basically no AC in the room and it was a mess. The clerk was letting everyone check their rooms before checking in because they were so bad.

Nasty and dangerous
Room was filthy and deplorable. When I went to plug in my cellphone, dead roaches were all over the socket. There was a recent roach infestation there. Water leaked from the ac inside and outside of the room. The door locks but still has a gap when you close it. I had to move the chair in front of the door to make sure no one could bust in on me. I was so nervous about the room that I checked in shortly before midnight and was out of there by daybreak. I could not sleep a wink there. Let’s not even begin to talk about the fact that there is not an elevator and the stairs are really steep. A complete death trap! I would have had a better stay at motel 6 for less.

This was a horrible stay. I would give negative rating if I could. Staff was friendly, but amenities were horrendous. The smell of the room was very strong, the bathroom was dirty, the sink had a crack fixed with electrical tape, bugs in the nightstand. It was so bad we considered sleeping in our car. ThankGod we only spent 1 night (game night) and we got out of there as soon as we could – we didn’t dare to use the shower. For the price we paid for the stay, the owners should do better. This has a potential to be an excellent hotel – good location, good staff. if you don’t have anoyher option of hotel, consider your car to sleep - you wilp be better off
