The price was cheap for a Saturday night stay & close to downtown attractions (~ a 5 minute drive.) Interaction with staff was brief but friendly. Check in /check out was quick - no problems. The faded, front hotel sign read "NOW OPEN", which made me initially think that the hotel may have had some renovations. Overall, the hotel is old, dirty, and in need of many, many updates / renovations. The lady who checked us in told us our room overlooked the pool, I was briefly excited. It did, but the pool was empty w/ stagnant water puddled at the deep end. As an employee, I don't think I would have led with that but would've rather let guests know that the pool was closed or under repair. There was a presence of couple of questionable people on the grounds that always seemed to be hanging outside. I wasn't sure if they were guests, employees, or homeless. As a result, I would not walk around alone. The room was also old and dirty. I spent the first couple minutes cleaning all the high touch areas b/c these areas felt sticky & looked dirty. The bed was comfortable and appeared to be the cleanest part of the room; however, the fitted sheet may have been dirty or stained, not really sure, so we slept over the flat sheet. The hotel was quiet at night, & surprisingly, we slept well. I feel this is an example of you get what you pay for. If you don't mind overlooking these realities for a cheap night away from home, then go for it. As for us, we will not be returning on our next visit.
