Repairs needed and better cleaning

Rooms were dirty with actual garbage. TV didn't work. Toilet clogged in multiple rooms. Mold in bathroom. Lamp rusty. Celing falling down in bathroom. Hair in drawers, and not the ones from your head. Hair in sheets.

The property was in major disrepair in all areas of the building. The hallways smelled like cigarette smoke. The worst was both beds sheets were full of random hairs. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize this until my child was husband were already asleep. I hated to wake them up to move them to another hotel. If it wasn’t for this we would have left. We wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone.

Hotel was clean, bed linens very comfy. Staff friendly and helpful. Lobby was a tad noisy in the morning because doors to second floor were not closed (not sure why) made sound travel upward and right to our room. Breakfast was definately better than others I've had at hotel. Good place to stay.
