Trash Motel not Hotel
Complete trash. Don’t come here! The service sucks! No WiFi code readily available. No actual breakfast just a lunch bag like if someone was in jail. Left me on the 3rd floor and tried to have me walk back and forth for my own service that I paid for.

Won't stay there again
The room was really dirty. The floors needed swept badly, the walls are covered in dirt and marks. The shower head leaked up into the ceiling, causing paint to peel off. One of the tables in the room was completely broken off, with the top over the TV stand. The beds weren't too bad, but the pillows are crap. One good thing was there was no bed bugs; that is the first thing I check at any hotel I stay at. The rooms basically did not look like the pictures; the pictures are 100% catfishing pics. I wouldn't stay there again. The managers were nice, though.
