Won't stay there again

The hotel was in the need of a good cleaning. The room I was in desperately needed a deep cleaning. I was also charged double and had to get a refund. The mattress was not very comfortable.

The room was not expensive so i wasnt expecting much. Just needed a place to stay to wait out a snowstorm. There was a weird stain in one corner and the toilet was not clean. Wouldn't be my first choice.

GAVE MY ROOM TO SOMEONE ELSE, NO ROOM FOR ME.

I didn't have a stay. They gave my room to somone else even thought I paid for it a month in advance. There were no rooms when i went to check in. I had to make a last minute booking somewhere else.
