The room is in need of repairs and it took over 4 hrs to get the room warm. The places is in need of serious updating. The only way I'll stay there again is that's the only places I can get a room at.
We had a late last minute check in and the manager greeted us warmly and gave us our key. The room was spotless and the heat worked very quickly. I would revisit if I was ever stuck late at night in whatever city that was again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Room clean and neat for such a classic style facility. Retro type check-in.
Absolutely one of the worst places I have ever stayed at, I truly would rather sleep in my car than such place. Unfortunately I forced to stay at the place due to no availability anywhere else within 30 miles, but honestly if I knew this place would be this disgusting I would have slept in my car. First of all, the receptionist called someone to confirm booking since they had no active system, room have one physical key no cards or codes just a key. Bathroom with extremely nasty and smelly and water leaking from under the toilet, mold in walls and ceiling plus messing pieces from ceiling. Carpet was very dirty I wouldn’t recommend walking barefooted. Bed didn’t have any covers just a very slim sheet. Hair all over the bed. AC/heating unit was so loud you can barely get enough shuteye of the boot caused by it. Walls are so thin you can everybody’s conversations. TV if it’s working it’s so outdated the picture is barely clear. This place is definitely not worth more than $20 a night and I was charged $109. Honestly, I truly wish harm on nobody but this place needs to be shut down
The room was just ok. The light bulb in our bathroom was out and we were told it would be replaced in the morning. So a whole evening with no bathroom light.
There was no staff on sight. Just a sign with a phone number to call. Felt unsafe at night with no one on duty in case of an emergency.
There was an iron, but no ironing board. No microwave. Very inconvenient.
