The desk clerk need to disclose that their is a deposit of $50 to pay at check-in it is not listed through the app and I have explained that to him. Overall the stay was horrible and I would not recommend to anyone booking this hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Smelled old had mold on wall n ceiling felt very humid
In bad part of town. Noisy. Dont go walking to the gas station after dark. Especially white ladies. The other guests did not care they were extremely loud and obnoxious. Little babies wandering the hall. Crazy
Room was dirty. Complained to staff, they went in to ‘clean,’ but really did little to nothing to clean it properly (dirty was behind the doors and under desk). Staff gave me attitude as well. Room had broken curtain hooks, mold under the sink, baby centipedes crawling and the hotel had an overall smell similar to that of a turtle tank.
It's just too many bad things. Start with getting into the elevator. Elevator walls are bad. The room floors was dirty with paint. How do you make up the bed and dont see the dust and floors haven't been swept and months. The tiles dust is still on the floor in the bathroom from when the tiles was installed. I didn't want my feet to touch the floors. I made the complaint to the front desk. The young ladies didn't have a response why the room was not clean properly.
I arrived late and it took a minute to get checked in. The smell in the room was very bad. Mildew covered many areas of the bathroom and the room. I have pictures. On top of that, there were dead roaches on the floor. Because I got in late and I had to leave so early I did not bother going to the desk. Since it took so long to get checked in I did t want to risk not getting any sleep. The place LOOKED ok, but was not very well maintained.
I stayed in room 224 where when I woke up I found a family of ants on the inside of my sheets. I called front desk and the clerk wasn’t concerned or helpful at first until I started using foul words to express how unprofessional she was being and that I needed another room. She said I would have to wait for housekeeping and she didn’t know how long it would be. Shortly she came knocking on the door with another room key to room 222 where the ceiling looked molded and no other accommodations were offered. I stay here on the regular but this trip was awful and unacceptable
My stay was alright,the floors were very moist and felt dirty when we walked in. The suite also didn’t have a tv in the living room area where we found that weird.
The sheets were very damp. The pillows are travel size. The breakfast was very very limited to waffles and cereal. No fruit. The air would not cool the room. We will travel another place next time.
The hotel was painted with that brown paint they used on the floor years ago. Water stains in the bathroom ceiling. The ice machine on the second floor had cobwebs in it. The TV did had good channels. The good thing was they allowed us to check in early.
